Abstract

See full text

A photo gallery user interface in mobile devices having features for restricting access to private photos and other sensitive data while intentionally sharing non-private photos and/or other data is disclosed. A mechanism is provided for locking one or more photos in a gallery out of view before relinquishing possession of the device to viewers. The user may scroll or slide through multiple photos stored on the device and indicate which photos will not be available to the viewer. A method and a system for privacy restricted photo navigation for a mobile device selects a private image from an image gallery to restrict sharing with viewers, scales back the private image to reveal an option to select an additional private image, locks the selected private image(s) from viewing and unlocks the selected private images for viewing when a Personal Identification Number (PIN) is correctly entered.
