  • Open the app, find the specific location where the files will be hidden. Tap on NEW to create a new folder.
  • You can pick any name for the folder, but make sure it’s prefixed with a period mark. This will make system hide the folder.
  • Once it’s created, start moving the photos from the storage location to this particular folder. Just tap on an image until it’s selected, followed by tapping on others to select them. After that, you can choose ‘Cut’ from the menu.
  • Go back into the previous folder and paste here. The photos will show up in the current location.
  • You can set from the File Manager to either show or hide the protected files.
