Q&A (Galaxy S7 Edge): How to create a secret folder?

Question:

How do I create secret folders to keep files and images that I wouldn’t like the general public to see when they’re using my phone (Galaxy S7 Edge)?

Answer:

Use the built-in Private mode to hide the folders that you don’t want anyone to see.

To create a folder in Private mode, and then move files and images to it, follow these steps:

1. From your device’s Settings, tap Lock screen and security > Private mode.
2. Turn on Private mode and follow the on-screen instructions to create your unlock password.
   
3. While the Private mode is still turned on, open the My Files app.
4. Tap Private.
   
5. Tap the Menu button (three vertical dots) > Create folder, and then enter a folder name.
6. You can now use the built-in Move function in My Files to move your files & images to the folder you’ve just created. This folder will be hidden when you turn the Private mode off.
