GALLERY: 
Photos and videos stored in a locked photo album show up in the photo selection when trying to add a photo using Samsung messages application. 

I think that those images should not show up and if they do, they should have a cover image and require unlocking to allow it to be added to a message. 

I think this would be a great feature to have and add to the software.

What do you think? Have you noticed??

This is actually an old problem from One UI 6, never fixed. Not only Samsung Messages, but all apps can see the locked albums. You can move your files to the Secure Folder.
