How to secretly hide files and folders on your Android Phone?



I am using this  File Hide Pro by Emily Smith.
If you installed this app, you will see that it's name is Tip Calc which for me is a good way to fool anyone because they wouldn't know that you are hiding something on your phone because they couldn't see that you are having a file-hiding-app.

DOWNLOAD File Hide Pro

If you open this app, it will function as a simple Tip calculator.
To operate it as a file hider app, tap and hold the Tip Calculator text at the top until it switches to the different look.











This is how it looks after you tap and hold the Tip Calculator text.
To hide files or/and folders, tap the blue folder icon at the top right, then you will see the list of files and folders in your phone


Here is the list of the folders on my phone.

If you want to hide the whole folder, tap the green plus icon on its right side.








If you want to hide specific file, tap on the folder where it is included until you locate the file you want to hide, then tap the green plus icon on its right side.








file hide pro
Once you selected the files and/or folders that you wanted to hide. Got back to the main File Hide Pro menu, then tap the circle icon besides the x icon.


To disable the hiding of the file, simply tap the check icon.
In the example we have here in the picture, the folder mov is not hidden anymore











How to add password to your File Hide Pro App?

It is better to limit the access of this app only by you.
Add password to this app by modifying it's settings.







Tap the MENU key on your phone.



Tap Settings





Checked the box for Enable Password


and don't forget to Change Password

    See the post above.

      You cannot delete the file listed in TIP CALC while the file is not available or when you removed the SD card where it is located.

      You will see this notification coming from TIP CALC if you attempt to delete a file that is not accessible
      "The file has been hidden and cannot be removed from the list before restored."

      Since the file is deleted to you, you may try to go to TIP CALC

      1. tap the folder at the top right side.
      2. select the file you previously deleted to list of hidden files
      3. check/uncheck the button correspond to the file.

      Check to make it hidden
      Uncheck to make it visible

How to show the active character as you type it in the password field?

By default, you will see what character you are typing in the password field, and then it will turn to a solid circle for your security. But then, we sometimes accidentally changed our settings so we doesn't know why some default settings have changed. Typing a password without seeing the actual character could be a though situation especially if you can't login or access your account because you supplied a wrong information. To bring it back to it's default setting (Visible Password) Go to your Settings then tap Location and security Scroll down until you've reached the Passwords area. Check if the Visible passwords were checked. If not, then check it. That's all. You can now see the character as you type it in the password field.
