Can I Hide Books/Folders in SNote? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to hide one book/folder in SNote. Is there a way that I can do it within the SNote app? Or would I have to use a file manager like Astro and change the file name to hide the file? Or are there other apps that would hide the files for me?
I would like to hide a diary folder that I plan to use and add entries to several times a week. I have hidden photos in the past that I didn't want to access that often, so changing the file name with Astro was not a problem for situations like that. It would seem cumbersome to have to do that with every diary entry that I make though. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I think an actual diary app would be better in your case. That allows for passwords too

Any photo hiding apps out there??

Or something to lock the current photo app?
Thanks.
I just saw two in the market...sexting vault was one I think. Can't remember the other.
PhotoVault works good. You can hide individual pics, they wont show up in your stock gallery. Have to sign in w/ a password in the app to see the blocked pics....
I recommend photovault "sextingvault" just sounds suspicious. Its the same app. But better name.

The Easy way to hide photos is to mount the sdcard to your computer or use Astro or EStrongs File Explorer and just move all the photos you want hidden to another folder on the sdcard and name the folder .Whatever
Just put a Period . in front of the folder name and the Gallery app will not look for photo's in that folder so it hides them.
All you have to do is navigate to the folder with Astro etc and then view the photos from there.
This is how i hide photo's as most people are not going to go using a file explorer to go find photo's

The absolute easiest and probably best gallery app available is quickpic. It has just what you are looking for.
You can also make any folder hidden by adding * before the folder name.

Audio Manager (Hide it pro). Its awesome! It hides pictures, apps, music, and it even locks any apps you want. Best part, is that the app disguises itself as a volume controller app. Check it out.

Gallery private

Does anyone have an apk for gallery private for some reason it doesn't show up in my market and I can't seem to find it online any help is appreciated
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
as a new user, I can't post a link, but you can find a download link for the pro version at getandroidstuff-dot-com. just search for gallery private. once it returns the app from the search result, click on the gallery private app name and it will take you to a description page where you'll find a download link. or if you can find it elsewhere, that's cool too.
once you install it on your phone, it won't show up in your applications window, but you do have it installed. it's supposed to be discreet that's why it doesnt appear among your apps. instead, to access it, you have to add it as a shortcut to your homescreen. you'll see a G.P. (Pro) selection. just select it and it will create a shortcut icon on your homescreen, which you can drag into a folder if you want. Then bingo, you got gallery private and can modify the icon and the name!
Or search for audio manager on the market, its a private gallery for pics, vids, and anything you want to hide.

here is G.P. free. The easiest way to hide files is to use a file manage like astro and make a new file that starts with . (example .private) Any folders that start with the period are hidden folders and its contents will not show up on phone but you can still view them with the manager. you can then go to the settings in the manager and set it to not show the hidden folders. hope this helps
thanks everyone for the help i actually started using the audio manager one it works pretty good.

Hi bro. Thanks for share this app, but you can have the "G.P. (Free)" with "Search Files on SD" option?
Thanks so much.
I can't restore the old albums encrypted with this app... But your version not have a "search on sdcard" for encrypted old files with the app.
Thanks (again)

[Q] Which folder app?

Thought it best to ask here, than to install/remove a thousand apps, till I find a good one!
Which app do you think is best for creating/ organising the app menu, perhaps as folders etc?
With the new Sense where it doesnt "fast scroll", its becoming tedious scrolling to find the app you want!
Thanks in advance!
I use application folder it seems to do well and easy to add and remove apps from the folder

Looks good, but doesnt seem to be able to create folders in the App menu (the standard android app list).
That is what Im looking for, mainly.
I use the Folder Organizer app. It's about US ~1.41 on Android Market or $1.50 on Amazon Appstore. It allows you to make widgets and folders which looks a lot like the iPhone folders. There's several good organizing functions to define label tags and shortcuts, etc.

Hide media? (Delete me)

Has anyone managed to use the .nomedia method to hide unwanted photos etc? I can't seem to get it to work.
Edit: never mind I found a fix.
And .......?
Could you please let us know what the fix was?
You can hide photos from gallery by renaming the folder the photos are in with a "." period before the name.
Well use a .nomedia application from market to select folders you would like excluding from media scan. Then go to apply manager and find gallery clear defaults and data then (not sure if you need to) goto media manager and do the same. Then reboot. Not ideal but it works
Try using Quickpic from the market.... Hide pics and video and lock with passcode.

[Q] How to hide pictures in the CM10 gallery

I have tried the .nomedia approach (putting a .nomedia file in all the folders I want to exclude).
It works hiding all the existing pictures, but once you have new picture downloaded from browser or sent through whatsapp, it will still show up...
Kinda annoying.
Using quickpic atm but dont really like it...
help!!!
Download quick pic from the play store, from there you can hide albums or single pictures by holding down on them.
