Protect your apps with App Hider for Android.

App Hider allows you to hide any application you want in a safe password protected hiding place. This includes any default applications eg. Gallery, Messages*, GMail*, etc. Hide your photos, hide your sms text messages, hide your finance apps, hide your sensitive documents, hide your confidential mails, hide anything!

App Hider is a replacement Home Launcher app and protects your apps by only allowing access via a secure app portal that appears as a Stocks application.

Once inside the password protected area you can launch any apps, add more hidden apps, or remove apps you've chosen to hide.

Check out the YouTube demo for more details on how App Hider can help you to protect your apps.

You can change the name of the 'fake' portal app to anything you want and can even choose different icons from a set of 10 provided icons.

* NB - AppHider will stop these apps being visible from your app menu, however you will still receive notifications which can allow access to the app directly. We recommend turning off notifications.

Can someone please help!! I had been using this application until yesterday perfectly before I had to factory restore the settings on my HTC Desire HD A9191 phone. After that, I tried installing it back again but it is not compatible with my phone anymore. If someone has got older version, could you please give me so I can continue using it on my current phone coz I cannot afford a phone change at the moment? If there is some other problem, kindly advise. Thank you.

Changing a more advanced and good looking launcher and homescreen (I own a Nexus 4) to something dated (Froyo 2.2) and real bad looking is a step backwards. If fixed, this could potentially be a big hit... Pants Software fix this please and explain a little better what the app does. A dated website with a dated video is just not cutting it.... ANYBODY WHO HAS A NEW LAUNCHER AND HOMESCREEN BEWARE... Don't buy this app if you don't want your spankin new launcher and homescreen changed to something hideous.

This app replaces your standard homescreens before it will work. Manufacturers spend millions on how their homescreens work and this app replaces it with something horribly low budget. If you like the way your phone works as it is, then stay away!
