The first tip to hide conversation content is to turn off all notifications from messaging apps such as WhatsApp or Instagram. Thus, the conversations do not appear on the locked screen or in the top bar, an attitude that prevents curious people from seeing the chats.
Enable temporary conversations on WhatsApp
One of the recent WhatsApp updates is the creation of the temporary chat mode. In it, the user sets a time for messages to be automatically deleted, 24 hours, seven days or 90 days later.
Instagram also has a similar feature that works as a secret chat that automatically destroys messages, both incoming and outgoing.
The most advanced of them, Telegram, also has a secret chat that automatically deletes the sent message, in addition to notifying those who sent the messages an alert notification in case the recipient captures screen.
Create and share notes or documents in Google Docs
The iOS Notes tool allows the creation of collaborative drafts, which can be shared with others users and are updated in real time, with operation similar to a messaging app, although more rudimentary.
In Google Docs, just create a regular file and rename it to work as a hidden chat. When sharing, it's important to make sure you have enabled the editing tool so that the recipient can edit the document.
Upload non-repeat photos
On Instagram and WhatsApp, it is now possible to send photos with a single view, which do not allow repetition, after the message recipient has opened the content with the photo or video.
It is a practical tool for maintaining privacy, as well as reducing the amount of storage used on the device.
Hide messaging apps from home screen
By removing the applications from the cell phone's home screen, it will only be possible to see the chats when searching for the application in the library, which increases the work of the curious when looking for your conversations.
