Our personal privacy is something that we value the most and we definitely want to keep it safe from others. Since we all have our personal cell phones now, we always feel assured that our personal data will stay safe in our hands. But wouldn’t it be rude if you deny your friends and family members to have a look at you brand new phone.
Well this is a situation that we can’t avoid, but if you are worried about the personal photographs that are stored on your phone, you will need to hide them. Since Android doesn’t have a built in feature to hide files, you will need to use an android app.
The Google play store has thousands of such free apps which can help you to hide the personal file and folders on your android phone. But which one would you choose? One thing for sure, these apps can hide all your personal files and folders, but what about protecting the app itself.
