Fix Locked Folder missing in Camera app in Pixel 7/Pro
First off, let’s address the elephant in the room- Locked Folder has not been removed from the Camera app in Pixel 7/Pro. it is still there, it’s just that its location has been changed. You will now have to long press on the image preview circle present at the bottom right to bring up a menu and then select the Locked Folder.
While this change doesn’t make any sense whatsoever, however, the bigger issue lies in the fact that Google should have at least informed us beforehand, either via its Pixel Tips or when we launched the camera app for the first time. Anyways, this is how things stand and you will have to get used to this new location sooner than later.
