Description
This app is for hiding multimedia files received or sent on Whatsapp from gallery as well as other multimedia apps without affecting the communication over Whatsapp in a very simple way.
You can now hide the multimedia files of facebook app, facebook lite app as well as facebook Messenger app from gallery.
How it works:
This app creates a .nomedia file in the folder containing Whatsapp/facebook media files like images, videos or audio files. Android system will not scan the folder that will have .nomedia file in it and the multimedia apps like galley or video player apps will not show the media files from that folder.
Note:
Please be sure to have the Whatsapp/facebook apps (Folders) installed on the internal storage of your phone for proper functioning of this app.
This app is designed to work perfectly on AOSP ROMs.
Permission:
'To access photos, media and files on your device'. This permission is needed to read the folder location and to create the .nomedia file in that folder.
Warning (For MIUI users):
This app may not work with the stock Gallery app of some latest MIUI ROMS and we are working on the same. But till then MIUI users can use any third party gallery app.
