Privacy is an issue that worries many people today. Whether you are looking to keep your information private from a nosy colleague or boyfriend or girlfriend, there are several applications that can help you. In this article we point out some good applications to use to keep messages SMS and Photos not accessible.
Some of the applications on this list are free, others will need to be unlocked with the purchase of the pro version. Still others are made specifically to hide SMS messages or photos from prying eyes.
1. GO SMS Pro
GO SMS Pro is a very popular application. An interesting feature we noticed was the ability to have private contacts. Simply put, you can make a contact, eg. a potential employer, and put it in your private mailbox. Similarly for messages, if you send an SMS you can make it private and you need to unblock it to read it.
With the Premium version of GO SMS Pro, you can hide incoming private SMS from the menu and unlock more settings to make it more difficult to access private information. Also interesting is the possibility to rename incoming SMS by writing something a little less conspicuous.
2. Hi App Lock
This is a good option for blocking individual Android apps for better privacy. You can easily use Hi App Lock to lock any information you want to keep private. Think about how many times you leave your phone or tablet on your desk or in your car or in your backpack unattended. If your Android device is stolen, your privacy is also in jeopardy.
You will be able to send messages and take pictures and then make them inaccessible to all the curious.

Vault is a photo hiding app that has recently evolved into a privacy control center. With the free version, you can encrypt your images and photos, and you can even encrypt a limited number of SMS messages.
It also provides the ability to link your Facebook account and encrypt Facebook messages. When you send a Facebook message to someone, they will be able to read it, but the message does not appear in the conversation history.
