Where are the saved photos in the new version of VKontakte?

How to view saved photos

If you want to see your saved album, follow our instructions.

Your treasures

The sequence of actions for a PC and a phone is identical, but we have described everything in more detail.

From a smartphone

So, let's find out how to view your VK saves in the mobile application:

Log in to your account.
Click on the three horizontal lines in the lower right corner.
Select "Photos" from the menu that appears.

In the top right corner, click Show All to expand the entire gallery.

Find the desired folder in the list that opens.

From computer

This instruction will tell you how to view your saved photos in VK on a PC:

Go to your page.
Scroll down the page until you see the “Photo Albums” block on the left side.
Click on this inscription to go to the gallery.
Now click on “Show all albums”.
A list of all available folders with images will open, each with a name written on it. Find your save folder.

Other people's treasures

The album with saved files in VK is private by default. Therefore, if you cannot find it on someone else’s page, it means it is hidden by privacy settings. On your page, you can determine whether your saves are available to other people by the padlock symbol next to its name. If there is a lock, this VK album is hidden.

From a smartphone

So, let's begin:

Login to your account first.
Now go to the page of the person whose pictures you want to see.
Immediately below the main information of the page there is a feed with photographs. Click on the inscription “Photos” - next to it is the total number of photos in the folders.
On the right, click on the inscription “Show all” and find the desired album among those that appear.

From computer

We do almost everything the same:

We go to VK and go to the page of a friend or any other user.
Next there are two options. You can click on the total number of photos, which is indicated immediately after the block with general information. Or you can scroll down the page to the block with photo albums and click on it.

Next, click “Show all albums” - this inscription is located just below.
We look for “Saved Photos” and admire them.

What are save files and where are they located?

What is sokhry in VK? Imagine that you spend time scrolling through your news feed or the feed of some group. And then you came across a very beautiful picture that you liked so much that you wanted it in your collection. You can save it to a specially designated album.

Some users create entire thematic collections. They can be of the same theme or combined in colors. Or they may contain images with important information or interesting ideas for inspiration. It may also be that these photographs are in no way related to each other. In any case, it’s up to you to decide what to place in this folder.

To view these photos, you will only need to go to your albums, where your VK saves are located. We will look at how to do this further.

How to open an album with saved photos

If, on the contrary, you want to make the album available to other users, then our following instructions will help you.

From a smartphone

You can open the “Saved Photos” album in the VK mobile application as follows:

Log in to your VK account.
There is a gear icon in the upper right corner - click on it.
In the new window, select “Privacy”.
We find the line “Who sees the list of my saved photos.”
Select the value “All users”.

From computer

Now let's look at how to open save files in VK on a computer:

Go to your profile.
Click on your mini-avatar icon in the upper right corner.
In the menu that opens, select “Settings”.
Now, in the list on the right, find “Privacy” - click.
Also find the line “Who can see the list of my saved photos” and set the value to “All users”.

Please note that with this setting you can open access to your saves to a certain circle of people. To do this, you need to set other values that are offered in the menu.

Now you know everything about saves in VK and their settings. You can create your own personal collection and decide who to share it with. Well, our instructions will always come to your aid.

How to add a photo to saved files from a mobile phone

The rules of action for adding a photo to saved files from a mobile phone generally do not differ from the nature of the actions on a PC. It goes something like this:

Launch the VK mobile application (or equivalent);
Go to the desired VK page on which the photos you like are located;
Open the photo you need by tapping on it;
At the top there will be a button with three vertical dots. Click on it;
In the list of options that appears, select “Save to album”;
The specified photo will appear in your “Saved Photos”.

As you can see, nothing complicated.

Adding and deleting

Let's imagine a situation where you found an interesting photo on a user's page. Open it to view. Now at the bottom of the window, click on the “Save to yourself” link.

This image will be sent to your album.

To remove it, open it for viewing. A “Delete” link is available at the bottom of the window (see how to delete all saved VKontakte photos at once).

If you want to delete all saved photos in VK in one action, then this will not work. At the moment there is no working extension/application/script. And do not try to use fraudulent programs for this - there is a chance of being hacked.

How to download all saved photos?

One of the simplest ways to download photos from an album is the VKPIC.RU service.

It will allow you to download up to 1000 photos for free. Next, you will need to pay or use other, less convenient methods.

In order to download using “VKPIC.RU” you need:

Go on the website
In the upper right corner click on “Login”
Log in using VKontakte
In the “Insert link to source” field, enter a link to the album
Click "Next"

Is it possible to find out who looked at my photos on VK?

The vast majority of social networks do not have access to information about the identities of those who viewed your photos. Except for those cases when they themselves liked or left a comment under the photo. The same applies to VKontakte. VK's internal privacy policy and attitude towards personal data do not allow this function to be implemented.

Why is this option missing:

There is no desire to allocate separate server equipment for storing and computing the necessary data. In addition, this function will require scripts to work; their development will cost a considerable amount;
The desire to preserve user privacy and economic harm. If you conduct a survey about the need for a function to view individuals who have looked at photos, users will be divided into 3 fronts. Some will absolutely not care, others will be fundamentally against it, and only a third will want to see this opportunity. Mail does not want to lose traffic, because after the feature is implemented, many users will begin to hold back from visiting pages. No one wants to be seen under a photo of their enemy or ex.

Simply put, there is no standard viewing function and most likely never will be. Moreover, this feature is not provided in Odnoklassniki; only account visitors can be viewed here. However, there are other ways to find out this information, which will be discussed in the material.

Viewing closed VK albums through other resources

Try to use the resource of the creator of the social network VKontakte Pavel Durov - durov.ru. All the pages that were on VK, as well as their data, were available here. After the transition in the browser line, the link will look like this: durov.ru/index.html#. Behind bars, you must indicate the user ID of the user who has the images hidden from view.

There are other resources that can help you open photos from locked albums. But it's worth remembering that they all require your permission to receive your personal information. It is quite possible that after some time you will not be able to access your page because someone has changed your access settings. Therefore, viewing closed saves in VK 2021 in this way is an unsafe activity.

Not everyone knows that you can save photos . That is, these can be not only photos of other users, but also any images posted anywhere on VKontakte (user/community wall).

How to view your favorite publications on VK on your computer

Open the News section in the menu, then click on the Liked section on the right.

VK menu section Liked
A window will open containing all the posts, comments, photos, videos and products you liked.

VK feed with your favorite posts
There is a filter in the right settings column. All sections are included in the screenshot. If you want to see only photos that you liked, then leave a check mark only in the Photos item.
If you want to remove the like, click on the heart icon again and the like will be removed from the post.

That's all. In addition to likes, you can save your favorite post to bookmarks. If you not only liked the post, but also found it useful, then add it to your bookmarks to collect your own library of useful posts and then read it whenever you want, rather than searching in your feed.

How to view saved photos in VK

If you want to look at another user’s saved photos , then it’s not so easy.

p, blockquote 26,0,0,0,0 –>

Previously, an album with any person’s saved files was publicly available. But in 2021, VKontakte developers decided to block access to saved photos.

p, blockquote 28,0,0,0,0 –>

p, blockquote 29,0,0,0,0 –>

This is due to the fact that previously many users saved obscene photos, thinking that no one would see them. Then all the photos were in the public domain and you could get a specific sentence for distributing obscene photos. Find out how not to sit down for reposting on VK.

Therefore, today only the user himself can configure access to his saved photos. Ask a friend to open the saves - this is the only way out.

Many users of the social network VKontakte are haunted by photographs that their friends or significant other hide from public view. In this regard, many questions arise on forums and other communities. If a person hides some of his files, it means they contain particularly valuable information that he does not want to share with others. In this article we will look at all possible methods and find out how it is possible to view closed saves in VK 2018.

How to view your favorite publications on VK on a mobile phone

Go to the News section
News section in the mobile version of VK
Click on the triangle next to News and select Like

The posts that you liked will open. Here you can remove the like if it is no longer relevant.

How to add photos to VK saves from a computer

We figured out how to open access, but how can we add photos to VK saves from a PC? To do this, you need to perform a simple series of steps:

Go to the VK page where there is a photo you like. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a group page on VK, or a private page of a subscriber;
Click on the photo you like. It will open in full screen;
Below the photo, click on the “Save to yourself” button;

Click on “Save to yourself” below

History of the function of displaying content with your likes in VK

For many users of the popular social network, it is no secret that VKontakte remembers the materials that we liked earlier. This applies to news, photographs, clips, posts with audio, allowing you to put your like next to (or under) them. The “memory” function was introduced by Pavel Durov, allowing the user to easily find the material he once liked.

At the same time, the location of such materials in the VK functionality was constantly changing. Previously, we could find the content we liked in the “News” tab. Then, about a year ago, they were moved to the “Bookmarks” section, where all the material we liked was displayed, divided into categories. Then, on October 16, 2021, the VK administration again decided to change the location of the materials we liked, and now they are again available in the news section.

Notification to the VK administration about the transfer of liked posts back to “News”

Judging by the available data, this is far from a final solution to the pressing issue. What next modifications await us in the near future is unknown.

How to see your favorite photos and publications on VKontakte

Thus, now you can view VK materials with your own likes using the “News” section that is familiar to us.

To do this, do the following:

Go to your page on Vk.com;
Select the "News" section on the left;
Select the "News" section
In the list of options on the right, select “Like”;
Select the "Like" option
If necessary, uncheck the filter categories (posts, comments, photos, videos, products) located just below.
Leave only those categories in which you need to search; If necessary, uncheck the filter options
Browse through the list of content you previously liked. Viewing may take a long time, since VKontakte remembers your likes literally for years.

How to see your favorite content in bookmarks

Another form of displaying the content we noted earlier is the “Bookmarks” section. Previously, it was displayed in the section panel on the left, and then was hidden by the next update of the VK functionality.

To open it, do the following:

Go to your Vk.com page;
Click on your avatar in the top right and select “Settings”.
In the settings page that opens, click on “Customize the display of menu items”;
Click on the option “Customize the display of menu items”
In the list of sections, check the box next to “Bookmarks”;
Check the box next to the "Bookmarks" option
Update our VK page.

Now the “Bookmarks” section will be available in the sections menu on the left.

"Bookmarks" section in the menu on the left

Click on it and you will go to a display of all the materials that you previously transferred to the “Bookmarks” section. On the right there are many options with which you can sort all the materials available there (people, communities, articles, links, etc.)

The actual transfer of any content to bookmarks is done by clicking on the arrow at the top of the material (to the right) and selecting the “Save to bookmarks” option.

Select “Save to Bookmarks” to save the content you like in the “Bookmarks” section

You can also add a tag to your favorite post by clicking on “Add Tag”. With the help of such marks, you can easily find the material you need in the pile of records and photographs you have saved.

Functionality for viewing posts in the mobile version of Vk

Previously, in the mobile version of the VKontakte website, viewing materials we previously liked was organized similarly to the stationary version of the site. The content was first available in the Bookmarks section, then moved to News.

Now, in the mobile version of the site at m.vk.com, the “Like” section has appeared in the list of available sections.

“Like” section in the mobile version of the site

The latter was introduced recently, and displays a list of previously marked posts, photographs and VK publications. At the same time, as in the stationary version, there you can sort all the materials we like into sections (All, Posts, Videos, Comments, Products), view photographs, and so on.

Closed VK saves - all methods: how to open from a computer?

Closed VK page

“Closed Profile” mode on VKontakte allows you to limit access to personal information on the page to all network users. Now you can make it so that some people will see your page the way you see it, while others will only have access to your avatar, last name and date of birth, if it is indicated on your page. Access to your friends list and posts can be blocked. So, below you will find ways to view a closed VK page.

Sending a friend request

Asking a person to be your friend is the easiest and most accessible way to view private VK saves, or the user’s entire page. As soon as the friend request is approved, all entries in your profile will become available to you, except for photos and video files if they are hidden by privacy settings.

Tip: If you and the user do not have the most friendly relationship, then he may not be added to your friends list. In this case, create a fake page and then he will not understand who you are and out of curiosity he may add you as a friend.

Help from mutual friends

Find a mutual friend with the user whose saves you want to see and ask him to send you the necessary information. Of course, you will have to be prepared to explain why you need this. But remember, you only need to ask someone you trust and are confident that he will not inform the target of your surveillance about your intentions.

View the profile yourself

This method is suitable if you are actually a friend of the user whose private saves you want to see. You need to come to his home and, under any pretext, gain access to the device from which he logs into VK. This can be done playfully and this method is often used by guys and girls who need to check up on their significant other.

Phishing resource

Now there are many sites on the Internet that offer to open closed pages. To do this, you only need to know the page ID and that’s it. However, it is worth noting that such sites are mostly scams. It is important for them to gain access to the profile and good profits.

Problems such as page blocking and extortion of money for its restoration may also arise. Attackers can also leak information online or send a virus that will completely block the device. Therefore, it is better not to resort to this method.

Hacker help

On the Internet you can find many advertisements of hackers offering profile hacking services. Many of them can actually do this, but most are still scammers. They gain access to the account, take their profits and disappear in an unknown direction. The whole problem is that you probably don’t know whether it’s a real hacker or just an attacker who only wants to gain access to your or another page.

Is it possible to view private photos and videos on VK?

The answer to this question is no. If the user has hidden photos or video files in the privacy settings, you will not see them at all. Those sites or individuals who offer the service of revealing hidden profiles or files are scammers. By accessing them, you risk your online security or the security of the page you want to access.
