This app is a must install on every new phone. I can hide WhatsApp folders, so they can't appear in my gallery :) You can install, add the no media, and uninstall and the changes remain, so it's great!

Horrid, dude.... so many ads that I can't even see any of my files, and it floods the screen. Then it wants me to buy a premium membership to look in certain folders. One of the most money-hungry apps I've seen, when all It's supposed to do is create an empty file called.no media.

Each time it says to use this application it doesn't do anything apart from asking for permission ive tried doing what it says, but it's not even trying to open or anything can you explain how it works
