What are the best apps to hide certain apps from being seen/found? Same with pictures, vids, maybe even texts? Probably 1 app cannot do this all so if you know them, post them!
Compiling a list of the best apps of all categories for android, so help out the community and leave some names and a quick reason for its pros/cons over other apps!
Thanks!
Do you have videos or pictures you want to hide to your girlfriend?
do you mean "of" or "from"?
Titanium backup pro let's you freeze an app making it invisible and non functioning, just unfreez it and it works and the icon will return

bump! i know some of you have these!
Put a dot . in front of the folder names of the 'dirty' folders.
search for Hide it Pro in the market
what does putting a dot in front of it do?
It hides it. The folder can't be accessed from the gallery app, and it's hidden in the file manager until you check "show hidden files".
This also works in Windows and Ubuntu (Ubuntu = CTRL + H)

Wow That's interesting
shady SMS
it overrides all the sms system while letting everything like it should be ....
but it create a secret contact list and text or call from the people in that list get intercepted by shadysms .... call still go through though ... but the call history will not show it!
you can access your secret SMS from your hidden contact list by dialing "123" on the dialer =)
there is no icon of this app... can only be access by dialing "123" or whatever you set to after....
best app to keep your girlfriend
I tried Shady but I ended up going with My Calculator. Its actually called My Private Messages but everywhere (from the Market to your downloaded app list) it is reffered to as My Calculator as to not attract any wandering eyes. The app is nothing fancy from a UI perspective, but as far as keeping incoming and outgoing texts from others, this thing rocks.
It is a calculator that functions as a normal calculator until you type in your passcode followed by "+,=". It then takes you to a hidden inbox where messages from your selected contacts will land when they text you. You will know you have received a new text when a notification of your choice pops up in your status bar. I use the default one which reads something like, "A wireless network was found".
If you are looking for simple, tried, and true with out anything flashy, check this thing out.
One addition I would say would be useful is the ability to send all messages from unknown senders who arnt on your contact list to the hidden messages box, that way if you ever get a random text it would go straight there. Or has this already been done.
Does anyone use a Photo/Video vault that leaves the files it hides in basically the same location?
My external SD is bigger than my internal one. HideIt Pro would be just the ticket if it didn't insist on transferring my videos from the external to the internal SD when it hides them.
Encryption is preferable but not necessary. I just don't want one like GalleryLock that basically just changes the directory/file extension without even altering the filename.
I may have to go back to using my old two-app combo of Photo Vault & Video Vault, but I hate their UIs.
I have a drawing app. And I want to be able to message the drawings from the app. There is a share option that includes things like gmail, facebook, twitter... etc. But Messaging is not one of them. Not sure how to change this, can anyone help me out?
Description
Social Notification is the fastest way to share your thoughts on Twitter or with other apps. Social Notification creates an always-on notification that, when touched, will let you type your text and share directly to Twitter or even with other apps, like GMail or your Facebook app. With Social Notification, you don't have to close the app you're currently using to share your thoughts with the world. You share, and then you're right back to the app you were using before!
Features:
-Always-on notification to quickly share your thoughts from anywhere
-Post directly to Twitter, without the need to open your Twitter client
-Share with any app you have that can handle text
-Shorten links with bit.ly (you can even short the link without sharing it!)
-Send DM's by typing "D username" and your message (replace username with the user who will receive the DM, not need for the @, and take the quotation marks out!)
-Option to send a tweet again if it fails to send in the first time
-Runs on Twitter API 1.1
Pro Features:
-Option to auto-start the app when the system boots
-DashClock Extension (4.2)
-Option to add location to your tweet (geolocation)
-Upload a photo directly from the application
-Expandable notification to quicly close/open the app (Android 4.1+)

Developer Notes
Social Notification is my first Android app. I learned to develop for Android while creating a concept, which became Social Notification.
I'm one of those guys who tweet 100 times per day, so I wanted a way to post to twitter without leaving the app I'm currently using. That was the motivation behind Social Notification. After starting the development, I found it would be nice to have an option to share with any other app, not only directly to twitter. I hope Social Notification saves your time just like it saves mine!
Known Issues
-In some cases the friends list (people you follow) is not complete. It looks like an issue of Twitter4j or TwitterAPI, and I'm investigating it
Libraries used
-Twitter4j
[Q] Secretly Saving SMS & Call Logs without any notification on the notification bar.
Hi Team,
Wanted to know which application is there in Google Play store which can secretly save the text messages and call logs of the Phone without the user who actually is using the phone. Secretly means no notifications should be shown on the status bar and it should run on the background.
For e.g. If parents want to give their child a phone and want to keep an eye on them, then they can install this application so that even if child deletes the contents of SMS/Call logs, then also parents would come to know what they had been doing as the contents of the SMS along with other necessary information would be saved by the application on the device.
If there is no such app yet developed by anyone then would request you to have a look into the same.
