No option to read albums in Photos on iPhone

The first time I use the album for saving pictures, I need "addOnly" permission and I apply for, the second time I use the album "read" permission, I get a popup prompt, there is a choice to keep “keep add only”, when I choose this, I will not be able to change the permission to read the album any more, even go to the settings, I can not find the choice to read the album! I cant find solution but only uninstall my app and re-install, and make sure I apply read album permission firstly.

What kind of album are you asking about?

In Photos only the Hidden album und Recently Deleted can be protected by a password. Or asking about albums in a different app or a shared album, that someone else has created?

There is no need to pay attention to the type of the photo album. This is related to the types of system photo album permissions granted to the app. You can try the steps described in the problem statement:1.request "AddOnly" Permission first 2. then request "ReadWrite" Permission, choose "keep addOnly". After that you can find out the app will not access photos anymore but only write image to photos for save.
