How in the world are chats in private apps such as Instagram able to be extracted off my phone without being in the actual app?
Yes, chats within IG are able to be taken from my phone without being logged into the app!
Seems as if websites visited in a private browser are also able to be seen in some sort of history log.
How is this done?
Thanks

Vault—the Ultimate in Privacy Protection
Vault hides your confidential SMS messages, contacts, call logs, pictures and videos. It’s the BEST app for Android users to hide SMS messages and call history from prying eyes! It keeps your private stuff hidden, giving you complete control over your privacy and security.
With Vault, you can:
1. NEW in 2.0! Monitor who’s trying to see what’s on your phone and photograph them in the act. This feature requires an Android 2.3 (or higher) device with a front-facing camera.
2. NEW in 2.0! Hide your photos and videos so only you can see them. They’ll be encrypted and only viewable in Vault when you enter the correct password.
3. Import your sensitive SMS text messages to Vault. Strong encryption and password protection ensures they’ll be hidden from everyone but you.
4. Make your private contacts invisible. Simply add a number to Vault and any calls or messages from this number will only appear in Vault. They’ll no longer appear in your phone's native SMS folder and call logs.
TIP: We recommend adding your most commonly used contacts to
Vault. If your phone is lost or stolen, you won’t have to worry about anyone accessing your contacts or messages.
5. Protect your real Vault by creating one or more “fake” vaults. If someone insists that you give them your password and display your secret messages, you can show them the “fake” vault. Problem solved!

what's this theme on the screenshots?
This app lost all of my contacts that I stored in it and since it deletes them from your android contacts I can't get them back. Photo/video seems to work but definitely would not recommend this app for anything you wouldn't want lost.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you must return to your settings before uninstall the app... i did the same mistake first time but my luck was that i chose to hide only the videos... so before uninstalling turn back to show contacts, videos, and other things that you selected to hide
I think you have a folder on your sdcard (the app folder) and there must be the things that you chose to hide.. cheek it
i have format my hp without backup my file on vault 1st...then after format i install vault back...my old file cannot open...please help me to recover back my file...
Does anyone know of an app that can actually hide other apps?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA Premium App
free cannot, premium may offer additional feature
Needs a file explorer. I have videos that I need hidden, but the app can't find them.

Hello to everyone who is using IM app ChatON, whether on Samsung mobiles or others.
Was anyone able to find a way to clear all the shared pics, animated mssgs, vds etc etc that always stay in trunk and return back even when start a new chat, after deleting the old chat.
To explain in detail, when we chat with someone using ChatON and share some pics, vds or etc etc, which stay in trunk of that chat window do not have the option to delete them like in WatsApp. But when delete the chat, there is a pop up that says "All your messages with trunk will be deleted permanently" looks promising. But when we start a new chat with the same person whom we have recently shared pics, vds etc etc, all the trunk is restored. Does it mean all our shared data is stored in Samsung servers? (It does not sound very good if its true ) Then is there anyway to delete the trunk Permanently without anything being restored when we start a new chat.
I have posted this thread here because this particular app has increased the quality of the way we chat unlike in any other IM apps like watsapp, viber, tango, IMO, etc etc. Its fast and super eye candy. So just wanted to know if we have a solution for the problem I mentioned above. One should use it before commenting negative about this app . Tried to find any stored data of this app using Root Explorer, but could not find any and could not find any solution anywhere. But then, after complaining about this issue (this is a issue to me), and no reply from ChatON or Samsung even after 9 days, I have decided to take help from XDA.
Moderators and Senior members, please excuse me if this thread is irrelevant to XDA, and please delete the thread, if you wish so. I just wanted to know, how the app functions so that we could tweak it, in order to make it more secure.
Hi all,
There are a lot of apps out there like MightyText, AirDroid, or DesktopSMS that allow you to send SMS messages from your PC. The problem with these services is that all the TOSs show that messages could be saved on their server. They also give pretty universal permission control to the application. While I'm sure these apps are "safe," I'm looking for a self-hosted solution, where I can host a website that my SMS/MMS content is synchronized to, and allows me to send SMS/MMS from the web browser (or companion app).
Is there something out there that does this? If not, I'm going to look into developing it myself.
Thanks!
Platform
I'm a developer and I had to create something for one project of mine and in time it became a whole project by himself.
I've created a self-hosted SMS marketing platform that it's integrated with more than 150 SMS providers you can bring your own device if you require it.
Have a look at selfhostedsms.com
Hello everyone. Few days ago my new WP app has been posted in Windows Market. And now I have to ask you, could you help test it? Search in market: SendMe
You can easy send and receive messages. Also you can easy copy text to clipboard. For example: You need to text really BIG URL-address, here you can easy do it, just click on message.
App will have a lot of changes, so this is just beginning.
I'm really curious: what the reason and purpose of the app? There are SMS, emails, bunch of different messengers on the platform to "send and receive messages"... Why do you think anyone will install it?
Use device network services, music, media items currently playing, any of sensors, acces browser, send push notiifications, use data stored on external storage device (sd card? ).
How in the world are chats in private apps such as Instagram able to be extracted off my phone without being in the actual app? Seems as if websites visited in private browser is also able to be seen in some sort of history log.
But, yes, chats are able to be taken from my phone without being logged into app!
