# Memories

A private gallery of photos and videos just for you, locked with Face ID or a code.

**Memories** are photos and videos you save for yourself. Nobody else sees them unless you send them on.

## Getting there

- The **Memories** tab (swipe the bottom bar sideways).

- **Hold the camera button** in any chat.

- **Settings → Your Memories**.

## Adding to them

- Pick **Memory** when you post from the Post button.

- Hold a photo in a chat and choose **Save to Memory**, or hold a story and choose **Add to memory**.

- **Settings → Import from Snapchat** brings in your Snapchat Memories.

## Finding and using them

Filter by **Photos**, **Videos**, **With a place** or a **Period**, or browse them on the **Memory Map**. Tap **Select** to save several to your camera roll, share them or delete them. Open a photo and use the **scissors** to cut out a sticker for your chats.

## Lock them

The first time you open Memories you can protect them with **Face ID** (or Touch ID) or a **4-digit code**. To change it later, go to Settings and **hold Your Memories**: **Change code**, switch between Face ID and a code, or **Disable protection**.
