About this app

File Hider is a powerful utility designed to keep your personal photos and videos invisible from prying eyes. Beyond simple password protection, this app offers advanced privacy layers to ensure your sensitive content stays truly private.
🛡️ Advanced Privacy Features:

Hide Photos & Videos: Instantly move media from your public gallery to a private, hidden folder.

App Disguise (Icon Changer): Camouflage the app on your home screen by changing its icon and name to look like a common utility.

Decoy Vault (Fake PIN): Set up a secondary "Decoy" password. If someone forces you to open the app, enter the decoy PIN to show a completely different, harmless set of files while keeping your real vault hidden.

In-App Media Player: View your hidden images and play your private videos securely within the app's interface.

Quick Restore: Easily unhide and move your files back to the original gallery whenever you choose.

⚠️ Essential Information:

100% Local Storage: This app operates entirely offline. Your files are stored only on your device and are never uploaded to any cloud or external servers.

No Encryption: To ensure high-speed performance and seamless viewing, this app manages file visibility through directory management. It does not utilize file encryption.

Uninstall Protection: Because your files are stored locally, please unhide all media before uninstalling the app. Failure to restore your files before deletion may result in permanent data loss due to Android system protocols.

🚀 Critical Play Console Settings for these Features
1. App Access (The Login/PIN screen)

Since you have a Decoy PIN, you must tell the Google Reviewer about it in the "App Access" section we filled out earlier.

Instruction: "The app has a primary vault and a decoy vault. To review the full functionality, use the Master PIN: [Your Real PIN]. The decoy PIN [Your Decoy PIN] is for user privacy and shows empty/different data."

2. "All Files Access" Declaration

Google will ask why you need to "Manage External Storage." Since you have App Disguise, mention it:

Reasoning: "The app requires file access to move and hide user-selected media into a private directory. The app disguise and decoy features are core privacy utilities requested by users to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive local files."

3. Data Safety

Since the "App Disguise" might change the icon, Google counts this as "App Functionality." You don't need to check extra boxes, but make sure your Privacy Policy mentions that the app may change its own launcher icon for privacy purposes.
