New infinix smartphones now comes with an app Called XHide. You will be carrying out this operation with the help of xhide App. This app is seen on Infinix Hot 4 running on Android 6.0 and likewise on Infinix Hot 5 which runs on Android 7 nougat. There is also currently an option to upgrade the OS to Android 7 nougat which thus, comes with the XHide feature as well.

The xHide is essentially useful if you want to hide files on your Android phone and only access them via code. This works in a way that, only the user with the xHide code, can access those hidden files. This app, is something I have come to really appreciate on Infinix android phones.

All you need is setting up the app and after setting up the app for the first time, the app will no longer be seen among your apps on the app menu. The app can only be accessed via your already set code.
