Where is the Hidden folder in photos?
I Migrated my pics from iPhoto to Photos. I've read that the pictures will appear in a "Hidden" folder...not in Moments or Albums. Where is the Hidden folder? I cannot find.

Hi Ohohum,
Happy Holidays! The resource below will review the migration process from iPhoto to Photos for iOS. If you have any hidden photos, they will be in an album called Hidden. Click on the links below for complete details. I've summarized some of the key information relating to your question below:

The Photos app includes tabs for Photos, Shared, and Albums.
Tap Albums to see how photos and videos are organized into albums on your iPhone. See Organize photos and videos.
View all your photos and videos. By default, Photos displays a representative subset of your photos when you view by year or by collection. To see all your photos and videos, go to Settings > Photos & Camera, then turn off Summarize Photos.

Album tab includes albums you create and several default albums, depending on which Photos features you use. Videos are automatically added to the Videos album, for example. You see a My Photo Stream album if you use that feature (see My Photo Stream). If you use iCloud Photo Library beta, you have an All Photos album, which includes all your photos and videos in iCloud (see iCloud Photo Library beta); if you don’t use iCloud Photo Library beta, the Camera Roll album includes photos and videos you took with iPhone or saved to iPhone from other sources.
Hide photos you want to keep but not show. Touch and hold a photo, then choose Hide. The photo is moved to the Hidden album. Touch and hold a hidden photo to Unhide it.
Remove a photo or video from an album. Tap the photo or video, tap , then tap Delete Photo. The photo is removed from the album and from the Photos tab.
Delete a photo or video from Photos. Tap the Photos tab, tap the photo or video, tap , then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. Deleted photos and videos are kept in the Recently Deleted album on iPhone, with a badge showing the remaining days until the item is permanently removed from iPhone. To delete the photo or video permanently before the days expire, tap the item, tap Delete, then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. If you use iCloud Photo Library beta, deleted photos and videos are permanently removed from all iOS 8.1 devices that use iCloud Photo Library beta with the same Apple ID.
Recover a deleted photo or video. In the Recently Deleted album, tap the photo or video, tap Recover, then tap Recover Photo or Recover Video to move the item to the Camera Roll or, if you use iCloud Photo Library beta, the All Photos album.
