Create a PrivateSpace for your private data

Create a PrivateSpace for your private data

Create your PrivateSpace that is completely separate of the MainSpace (the original space) on your phone and make it accessible only by your fingerprint or password.

Not all devices support fingerprint features.

You can move private photos, videos, and other files to the PrivateSpace to prevent unauthorized access. You can also move your payment and gaming apps to the PrivateSpace to prevent them from being accessed by your child.

Enable and access the PrivateSpace

Go to Settings > Privacy > PrivateSpace > Enable and follow on-screen instructions to create the PrivateSpace.
You can enter your PrivateSpace using either of the following methods:
- From the lock screen, access the PrivateSpace using the corresponding fingerprint or password.
- In the MainSpace, go to Settings > Privacy > PrivateSpace and tap LOG IN.
If you restart your phone, you have to enter the password to access the MainSpace first, then switch to the PrivateSpace.

Hide or unhide the entrance to the PrivateSpace

To make the PrivateSpace even more secure, you can hide the entrance to it in the MainSpace settings so that the PrivateSpace can only be accessed by enrolling or entering the fingerprint or password set specifically for it at the lock screen.

Reset the password for the PrivateSpace

You can set a security question when creating the password for the PrivateSpace, which will help you to reset the password if you happen to forget it.

In the PrivateSpace, go to Settings > Privacy > PrivateSpace and tap Password protection.
Follow on-screen instructions to complete the verification, select and answer the security question, then tap FINISH.
In the MainSpace, go to Settings > Privacy > PrivateSpace and tap > Reset password . Follow on-screen instructions to complete the verification, then reset the password for the PrivateSpace.
