Privacy Display Guard is a unique privacy tool that places a customizable shield over your screen, letting you hide sensitive chat content from people looking over your shoulder. Whether you’re in public transport, a café, or any crowded place, this app ensures your messages remain private.
🔒 Key Features
Movable & Resizable Shield
Drag anywhere on the screen to reposition the shield. Use the four side handles or the corner handle to resize it exactly over the chat area you want to hide. It stays on top of all apps until you close it.
Touch‑Through Mode
When enabled, you can interact with the app underneath the shield without closing it – perfect for typing or scrolling while the shield stays in place.
Adjustable Opacity
Fine‑tune the shield’s transparency to balance privacy with visibility. Set it to a solid block or a semi‑transparent layer as you prefer.
Custom Background
Choose between a solid color or an image/GIF from your gallery as the shield background. Pick any color with our built‑in RGB color picker. For images, you can set a separate “excess color” for areas the image doesn’t cover – giving you complete visual control.
One‑Tap Start/Stop
Activate the shield from the main screen with a single button. A persistent notification lets you stop it anytime – no need to return to the app.
Full Privacy
The app does not collect, store, or share any personal data. All settings (position, size, opacity, background choice) are stored locally on your device. No analytics, no trackers, no third‑party services.
🚀 How It Works
1. Launch the app and grant the required overlay permission.
2. Tap “Start Privacy Guard” – a shield appears on your screen.
3. Drag the shield over your chat box, resize it as needed.
4. Optionally adjust opacity, enable touch‑through, or change the background.
5. Tap the ✕ button on the shield or use the notification to turn it off.
