Top 5 Apps to Lock Down Your Text Messages And Images | AMANAHAD Tech

Privacy is a concern for most people these days. Whether you are looking to keep your information private from a snooping coworker or a nosey boyfriend or girlfriend, there are apps to help. The problem is, some of the apps are just plain awful. What I will go over today are some good apps to use for keeping texts and images from being easily accessed.
Some of the apps in this list have some built in functionality for just such a task. Others may need to be unlocked by purchasing the pro version. Others yet are made specifically for hiding SMS messages or images from any prying eyes.

1. GO SMS Pro

GO SMS Pro is a really popular app. In fact, it is the one I have used off and on for couple of years. One feature I didn’t really know about was the ability to have private contacts. In a nutshell, you can take a contact, a potential employer for example, and place them in your private inbox. If they send you a text message, you will need to unlock the message before it can be read.

When you have the premium version of GO SMS Pro, you can hide the private SMS inbox from the menu and unlock more of the settings to make it more difficult to access. What I like here is the ability to rename the SMS vault inbox to something a little less conspicuous.

2. Hi App Lock

Very recently I talked about Hi App Lock. This is a good option for locking individual Android apps for better privacy. You can easily use Hi App Lock to lock down anywhere you feel an onlooker may be able to access the information you’d like to keep private. Think about how often you leave your phone or tablet on your desk or in your car or backpack unattended. If your Android device was stolen, what would people be able to see and/or do with the information they find?

Do you send messages to someone you aren’t supposed to? Are your work text messages or images you take with your work camera confidential? No reason for you to have information leaked just because you set your phone down.

3. Vault

Vault is an app that’s come a long way in the past couple of years. When I first tested it, all you could do was hide images and it wasn’t all that great at it. Now Vault has evolved into more of a privacy control center. With the free version, you can encrypt your images, you can also encrypt a limited number of text messages too.

A feature I really thought could be helpful is the option to link your Facebook account and encrypt your Facebook messages. When you send a Facebook message to someone, they will be able to read it, but the message doesn’t show up in your conversation history.

4. Secrets

Secrets is similar to Vault because you can hide images or other files. It’s different because the Secrets doesn’t show up in the Android app drawer. Opening Secrets is done by going to your phone dialer and typing the default 1111 and pressing send. You will be prompted to enter a code then you can see your hidden files. Having an app for just your images can be nice, especially when you might have taken or received some images you might not want anyone to know about.

5. Hide SMS

Hide SMS is just for hiding text messages. Hiding the messages is as simple as long pressing the message and opting to move the message to the hidden inbox. When a new message arrives, You will see an inconspicuous message in your notification bar saying KeepSafe updated. When hiding a current thread, the app may not move your images over. They didn’t on my Samsung S3.

Conclusion

People have many different reasons for wanting to keep their communications private. The above apps are there to help. I would recommend trying some of the all-in-one apps for an ease of use standpoint. When you have too many apps on your phone for similar tasks, it can get confusing and could even slow down or cause conflicts with each other

How to Speed Up Android Smartphone (The Ultimate Guide) | AMANAHAD Tech

 

Android Smartphones has gained lot of popularity in recent years. Many people around the globe now owns an Android Smartphone. Everyday more and more Android Smartphones are poured into market. It is available from high end to low end smartphones But even with newer versions of Android OS , even with high end smartphones,one thing remains same, their user experiences sluggish phones in short amount of time. The Android development are still under construction. So you can either sit around hoping for a update or patch to solve lagging issues. In meantime, you can use your smartphone as paperweight or something like that till patch comes, but it is a long shot Or you can take matters into your own hand and fix the issues using steps given below.

1.Do It Daily!

• Restart your phone daily once or twice. Yeah,it's sounds weird but restarting phone means all application process will restart too. It will remove any unnecessary process,clear clipboard and some other things which don't matter. All matters is you will have fast smartphone.
• If your smartphone have high heating issues, keep it off for few minutes. When many processes are running same time,it increases the heat. You will experience lot of lagging under that condition. This method is not very effective but it helps.
• Clear App Cache: Clear the cache of application you using more than any other. Those apps will have more data cache than any other cache. App cache is data of particular app. You can remove it by Settings > Applications > [ Select your App ] > Clear Cache Note: Don't clear cache of any Game App. It could clear all your game progress and reset your account.

• Check your Smartphone storage: Check your smartphone's internal storage space. Try to keep minimum 1 GB storage space free. Also check your external Storage space. If the SD card is full, remove some stuff or get new SD class with higher class.If your storage space is full, your smartphone will lag..a lot.        

2.Get Rid Of It

• Uninstall any unused apps. Uninstalling the apps you don't use will free up some internal storage space and also removes extra processes of that app. If the app is bloatware [ what is bloatware? More info in next steps] , Disable it.
• Remove all widgets. If you don't want to remove all widgets,try to limit widgets on your home screen. It depends on your smartphone how much widgets you can use without taking toll on it.But best option would be to delete all widgets.
• Switch to static wallpapers. Using live wallpaper will slow down the smartphone and also it takes lot of battery power. So static wallpaper is better option than live wallpaper.
• Disable all Animations. You can find its option under Settings > Developer's option.

• Use stock app-launcher. Stock app-launcher is default launcher. Using any third-party app launcher with lot of animation is not good choice. If you still want to use third-party app launcher, just disable all animation. That will improve the performance.

 3.Apps to Avoid

• Avoid any antivirus apps.
• Avoid any battery saver apps. Usually these apps slow downs the phones and also eats precious batter power. There are other ways to save battery than those apps.
• Carefully select any performance booster apps for your smartphone. Not all apps are suitable for your phone. Try different apps to find suitable app otherwise avoid it.
• Avoid any third-party launcher. Any launcher with lot of effects and animation will require more resources which will ultimately reduce phone performance. So keep it simple or better avoid it.

I am not saying this types of apps are useless and doesn't work. It is just not every app is suitable for all different smartphones. Experiment with different app to find out which one is suitable for you. But it would be best not to use it.

4.Compatibility Issues

• If you have powerful processor and high RAM in your smartphone,than avoid reading this topic.
• Update your smartphone to latest Firmware. A new firmware version can improve the performance but remember newer is not always better.
• If you have medium range smartphone[includes low range phones], think before updating to newer version of Android. If you are satisfied with running version of Android in your smartphone,than there is no need to update it.
• Every newer version of Android will have more features than older version. It will use more resources than previous version and you will left out with a sluggish phone. 
• Revert to stock Android version if possible. They are and would be the most suitable for your smartphone.
• Update to newer version of apps.
• Take a backup [more to that in next step] of app before updating it. So in case newer version of app is eating more resources or not compatible, you can switch back to older working version. 

5.Benefits of Rooted Phone

Rooting will give you master control over your phone. Sure it is little difficult , but it's worth it. There are various methods for rooting which you can find on net for your phone. There are different methods for rooting. Some of them requires unlocked Bootloader which will void your warranty. Read all steps of rooting process or take an expert advise before rooting your phone. It can brick your phones. A bricked phone is useless and hard to repair. The benefit of rooting is that you can always unroot your phone.So let's get started. 

• Root your phone.You can find more about it on forum.xda-developers.com .They are the largest Android community on net.
• You can overclock your phone processor for speed-up but it will eat more battery power.
• Custom-ROM: They are the unofficial version of Android for your phone. Custom ROM gives many options to personalize the phone according to your will. Note that not all custom ROM s are good.Before installing any custom ROM, read all the instructions. Check all requirements. Also check for any existing bugs or any missing features. If you are okay with it than install it. Custom-ROM can increase your performance at wide scale.But again, not all are suitable for your smartphone
• Can remove Bloatware on rooted phone.Bloatware are per-installed apps of your phone. Facebook,voice to text app ,voice dialer , google map are some of examples of bloatware. Bloatware apps are different for different phone. Not rooted phone can not uninstall it.With rooted phone,you can remove all bloatware, hence full control over phone.
• Can install and use more advanced app. There are many good apps that requires rooted phone. Keep reading for some of examples of rooted apps.  

6.Uncategorized stuff

• Disable data synching of different social account like Facebook,Twitter. Also disable synching of  email,gmail etc. To disable it Just go to Settings > Accounts.It could be different for other Android version.
• There is something you should check out if you are using Android version lower than 4.3. It is called Solid-State Drive TRIM.
• Last option is - Reset your phone. Reseting the phone will clear everything from contacts to all apps. You will have than out-of-box phone.

7.Playstore
