Locked photographs won’t appear in the Photos network, recollections, or other applications with admittance to the camera roll.
Google recently began pushing out the element to more non-Pixel gadgets, including Samsung and OnePlus cell phones. You may even see a brief spring up in the notice conceal. I ran into a caution recently on my OnePlus 9, which appears to show it’s effectively carrying out the present moment.
