How to Password-Protect Photos on an iPhone With Cydia
Cydia is a third-party software application that can be used on the iPhone. You can get a wide variety of apps on the iPhone through Cydia, including many apps that help you manage your photos. The iPhone is a great device for many different things, including taking photos, but it lacks some photo-management features, such as password-protection. Fortunately, there are photo-management apps available through Cydia to help with that.
