Yes, the app is free to download and use. Some advanced features may require watching a short ad to unlock temporarily, such as increasing the favorites limit or expanding the media selection limit.

First, set up a PIN in Settings > Privacy & Security. Then long-press any photo or video, select it, tap the menu button, and choose "Move to Private". The item will be secured in your private vault and will no longer appear in the public gallery.

If you've set up a security question during initial setup, you can use it to reset your PIN. On the PIN entry screen, tap "Forgot Password?" and answer your security question to create a new PIN. We recommend setting up both a PIN and a security question for maximum security.

We'd love to hear from you! Go to Settings > Feedback Us to send us your suggestions or report issues. You can also email us directly using the contact information in the About section. For bug reports, please include your device model, Android version, and app version.

The app is ad-supported to remain free. You may see banner ads, interstitial ads, and native ads. Some premium features can be accessed by watching short rewarded video ads. We strive to keep ads non-intrusive while maintaining the best user experience.

The app requires storage permissions to access and manage your photos and videos. On Android 10 and above, it uses scoped storage for better privacy and security. Biometric permission is needed if you choose to enable fingerprint or face unlock for the private vault.

Currently, Gallery Photo Album is available exclusively for Android devices. We don't have plans for iOS or desktop versions at this time, but we're always evaluating user feedback to improve our offerings.
