Ever just dropped your phone for a minute, and before you get back, your nosy friend or partner is all over your pone snooping and viewing things they are not supposed to see? Yes right, it could be pretty annoying. Or have you giving your phone to a friend to check out a picture or video and before you know it, they are viewing your whole gallery and going to place “for your eyes only”?

Well, If you are using a TECNO smartphone like the TECNO Camon 16 or TECNO POVA, then you are one of the lucky ones because the HiOS operating system on those devices was designed to keep your files safe from those prying eyes. New security features were recently introduced on these devices to help protect private files of from being hijacked or getting into the hands of the wrong people.



HiOS Vault

At one time or the other, you have had your privacy violated by your friend when they go through your videos, pictures or even documents without first asking you. It can be pretty annoying and unpleasant, but unfortunately, there is no way to get them to unsee it. But now, there is a way from preventing that from happening in the first place. The vault provides a passcode protection for your device, thereby preventing unauthorized access.

In the HiOS Vault, you can hide videos, pictures and even documents.

To access the vault, open your AI gallery on your TECNO phone, swipe left twice or click on the third icon at the base of the screen and select on Vault. You set it up by simply creating a security code and security question (just in case you forgot the code). Add media files by clicking on the “+” sign at the bottom right. Anything you store there becomes hidden from the public view.

Now you can record those embarrassing and goofy videos or have highly classified documents on your device without any fear of anyone able to access them with the new HiOS vault
