HIDLET / PHOTO PRIVACY
Pattern Lock vs PIN
vs Face ID
Which one actually keeps your photos private?
Face ID
Checks your face,
not who you are.

Falls back to your
passcode if it fails.
Your passcode
The one secret
that opens both.

Longer codes resist
guessing better.
Its own key
Never checked
against your phone.

Needs its own
secret to open.
They guard the same door.
Knowing one often gets you the other too.
Device Protection
Blocks some actions
without Face ID,
away from familiar
places.
A longer passcode
More combinations
to guess.

Doesn’t stop someone
who already saw it.
The one lock that stays shut
A vault whose key isn’t your passcode or your face.
A pattern can’t stop coercion — a duress vault is for that.
