Despite the fact that most modern smartphones are equipped with a fingerprint scanner that reliably protects our data, sometimes we need to hide certain files from quick access. Frankly, this is not a typical need, but from time to time it can arise for everyone.
How to hide files on Android?
-Go to the file manager (files)
-In it you are looking for the folder you want to hide (or create a new one)
-Open the context menu by holding your finger on the file
-Click “Rename”
-Place a period in front of the folder name
For the changes to take effect - in the explorer settings, disable the item "Show hidden files"
For example, if you want to hide the (Download) folder or any other, rename it by adding one period at the beginning of the name. It should look like this --> .Download
