Photoalbums+ Question

So I got the photoalbums+ tweak and I love it
It's great as I'm sure most of you know, but I've been wondering something
Has anyone noticed the fact that if you go to the "photos" tab
you can see all the pictures regardless if they're in a locked album?
Doesn't that completely defeat the purpose of giving us the ability to lock albums?
Or am I just missing something?

Is there anyway I can remove or lock the photos tab?

I'm not a user of the tweak myself, but having read the description of the feature, which clearly stated you can password protect folders to keep pictures "away from prying eyes", it seems like a complete oversight if they can still be seen in the "all pictures" view.

Best course of action is to contact the developer, which you should be able to do from the links in the App in Cydia...

Well, I just tested it and - it's not just you. It does show the "hidden" photos in the "Photos" section. Never noticed it before...

So, as f4780y suggested, I'd send an e-mail to the developer and tell him/her that feature doesn't work.

Ok I did that hopefully they can do something about it. I would suggest others do the same.

If anyone is still interested in this
The developer finally contacted me back and stated that they are
in the process of releasing a new version with a few improvements.
He said that I could try out their current beta by adding their public beta repo:

http://www.photoalbumsplus.net/beta_repo (just add this to Cydia)

I can't tell what the improvements are, but they have fixed the problem with the locked albums so I'm happy about that :)
