Privacy Screen: Hide Chats

Cover the parts of your screen you want to keep private.

Checking messages on a crowded bus or viewing personal content in a busy café? Privacy Screen: Hide Chats lets you place an adjustable mask over your display. Choose the area to cover and switch it on when you need it.

YOUR SCREEN, YOUR COVER
Adjust the mask’s size, position, color and opacity. Cover a section of a conversation or a larger screen area. Choose how much content stays visible.

QUICK CONTROL
Turn your mask on or off from the app, floating control or notification. Keep screen cover controls close while using other apps.

AUTO COVER WITH TILT
Activate a cover by tilting your phone away from its calibrated viewing position. Return to that position to reveal the screen again. Auto Cover uses your phone’s motion sensor.

PRIVATE SPACE
Keep selected photos, videos, files and notes in a PIN-protected space inside the app. Imported files and saved notes are encrypted on your device. Use biometric unlock on supported devices, export your items or create a password-protected encrypted backup.

PRIVATE BROWSER
Open HTTPS websites from inside Private Space, separate from your everyday browser. Private Browser is not a VPN and does not hide your IP address.

HOW IT WORKS
The mask is a software overlay: covered content becomes darker or hidden for everyone viewing the screen, including you. It does not change physical viewing angles or detect onlookers. Some protected apps may block overlays.

YOUR DATA
The screen mask does not read your chats or record the content underneath. You choose files to import using Android’s photo and file pickers. Importing a copy leaves the original in place unless you use the move option and deletion succeeds.

Vault files are stored locally. Keep an encrypted backup before uninstalling the app or clearing its data.

ADS AND PRO
The core screen mask is available with ads. Upgrade to Pro to remove ads and unlock the Quick Settings tile for convenient mask control.
