Hide Files and Folders in Android Devices

             

Hey Guys! I am Binit Ghimire and Today, I am showing you how to hide files and folders in Android Devices without downloading any useless apps.

If you want to hide your videos, photos or any other confidential files in your Android Devices, so that it does not display your photos and videos in gallery and video player, then follow these steps:

 

1: Install a file manager in your android phone, Goto Android market and search for file manager and install anyone. If you have a file manager already, you shouldn't install another.

 

2: Open the file manager and go to the folder which you want to hide. (If you want to hide certain specific files, the put them in a folder).

 

3: Rename the folder starting with "." Example: If you want to hide the "videos" folder, then rename the folder to ".videos".

 

4: You are done, Android gallery and video player won't recognize that folder anymore. If you want to unhide it, then rename the folder and remove the "." (dot).
