Mode for carrying out the invention

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

One of the file hiding methods is to modify the display attribute of the file to be hidden from the display to not display in the folder, so that when the terminal displays the file management interface, the file is no longer displayed to achieve a hidden effect.

This hidden method is actually a way of dealing with the thief. If other applications want to call the folder, the file information in the folder can still be completely read, so that the desired information can be read without any hindrance. Hidden files, that is, such file hiding methods cannot achieve the goal of ensuring privacy.

The embodiment of the present application provides a file hiding method and device, and moves a file to be hidden to a specific folder. Since this folder stores a specified file that can declare a file of the type to be hidden in the folder, when other applications or terminals scan the folder, it can scan the specified file. It is known that the folder does not store the file of the type, thereby stopping the scanning, and concealing the hidden file from the folder level, and combining the changes to the file format, the file itself cannot be scanned into the original. The type of file, this two-layer hidden way, can hide the file from the actual meaning, and achieve the purpose of ensuring privacy and security.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided by an embodiment of the present application. The implementation environment includes a plurality of terminals 101, a server 102 for servicing the plurality of terminals.

The plurality of terminals 101 are connected to the server 102 via a wireless or wired network, and the plurality of terminals 101 may be electronic devices capable of accessing the server 102, which may be computers, smart phones, tablets, or other electronic devices.

The server 102 may be one or more website servers, and may also be a cloud storage center for performing file storage and the like for the terminal 101. Of course, the server 102 may also perform file format conversion, file preview, etc. for the terminal 101. Other file related services. In this implementation environment, the terminal user can obtain the service of the server 102 by means of registration on the server 102, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

For the server 102, the server 102 can also have at least one database for storing user relationship chains, files, and user-related data, etc., so as to provide a more user-oriented and large-capacity storage service.

It should be noted that the file involved in the embodiment of the present application may refer to any file that can be stored in the terminal or stored on the server, such as a picture, a document, or a video.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a file hiding method according to an embodiment of the present application. In this embodiment, the file hiding device is only used as an execution entity. The file hiding device can be applied to a device such as a terminal or a server. Referring to FIG. 2, the method specifically includes:

200. Obtain a file hiding instruction and trigger a file hiding function.

The file hiding instruction refers to an instruction for triggering a file hiding function. In one example, the calling interface of the file hiding instruction may be provided by a hidden option, and the user may pass a hidden option on the user interface displayed on the terminal. Click and other operations to trigger the file hiding instruction, so that the terminal obtains the file hiding instruction and triggers the file hiding function. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the terminal may provide a hidden option 301 on the display interface 300 of the stored first folder. When the triggering operation on the hidden option 301 is detected, the file hiding instruction is triggered, so that the terminal obtains the file hiding. The instruction is to display the file in the first folder as an alternate state (such as displaying the frame 302 at a certain position of the file icon for the user to manually check), and the state of the box 302 is checked as shown in 303.

In yet another example, the calling interface of the file hiding instruction may be provided by a specified area, and the user may trigger a file hiding instruction by using a first specified operation on the specified area, thereby causing the terminal to obtain a file hiding instruction, thereby triggering file hiding. Features. For example, the first specified operation may be a touch-type operation on a blank area of a current interface (such as a display interface of a folder on the terminal) on the terminal, and the touch-type operation includes, but is not limited to, a continuous click operation performed by a certain rule ( For example, a double-click operation, a pressing operation in which the duration is longer than a preset duration (for example, a long-press operation), and a sliding operation in which the touch trajectory is in a certain pattern (such as a circle operation), the first designated operation may be a preset hidden trigger operation. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit which operation mode is specifically adopted.

201. Acquire a selected file to be hidden in the first folder.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first folder refers to a folder on the terminal for storing the first file to be hidden, and the first folder may be a default folder of the application, or may be installed by the user. The folder specified at the time. For example, for a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, if it is necessary to hide the picture in the album, the mobile phone album can be opened by the picture management application. At this time, the mobile phone album is the first folder, of course, if the user wants to hide is The picture in a subfolder of the mobile phone album can be opened by the subfolder. At this time, the subfile is the first folder.

As explained above for the folder, in fact, the file can be any type of file, such a file can be displayed as an icon on the terminal, thereby being observed by the user, and can be opened by clicking and the like to browse The specific content of the file. The file may be a file, a document, or the like, and may be a multimedia file such as an audio or a video. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

In the above manner, the file is first switched to an alternate state by a certain operation, and then the file is selected to determine the file to be hidden. In the actual scenario, the terminal can also detect the file for a certain file. The second specified operation determines the file to be hidden.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when any one or more files are selected by the user, that is, when the terminal obtains a selection operation for any file, the one or more files are determined as files to be hidden. The picture to be hidden process based on the second specified operation may be the same as the process. In the above manner, the terminal first uses a certain operation to switch the file to an alternate state, and then selects a file to determine a file to be hidden, and in the actual scenario, the first folder is The file indicated by the file hiding instruction is used as the file to be hidden. In one example, the terminal can also determine the file to be hidden by detecting a second specified operation for a certain file. For example, the second specified operation may be a touch-type operation on a file icon, including but not limited to a continuous click operation (such as a double-click operation) performed by the user on a certain regularity, and a pressing operation in which the pressing duration exceeds a preset duration ( For example, when the terminal detects the touch operation of the file icon, the terminal triggers a hidden instruction on the file, and the file can be determined as the file to be hidden.

For another example, when the terminal displays a certain file, a hidden option may be provided on a file display interface of a certain file, and when the terminal detects a trigger operation on the hidden option, triggering a hidden instruction on the file, This file is identified as the file to be hidden. As shown in FIG. 4A, on the display interface 401 of the terminal to the picture 1, some function options such as a hidden option 402, a rotation option, and the like may be provided. When a trigger operation on the hidden option 402 is detected, a hidden instruction is triggered, and the picture is triggered. 1 Determine the file to be hidden, and continue the subsequent processing to realize the hiding of the picture 1.

For another example, the second designation operation may be an operation assisted by a hidden function icon. For example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the hidden function icon 403 is displayed in a certain display area 405 in the folder 404, and the display area is 405. A hidden function icon may be displayed, when a drag operation on a file icon 406 is detected, such as pressing a touch point 407 on the file icon 406 for dragging, if the end point of the drag operation (eg, touch point 407) The final location) is located in the display area 405 in the folder 404, triggering a hidden instruction on the file corresponding to the file icon 406, and determining the file indicated by the hidden instruction as a file to be hidden, of course The above drag operation can also be replaced with a sliding operation with a certain speed to simplify the actual operation flow and improve the processing efficiency. Of course, the display of the hidden function icon may be a fixed display, that is, when any folder is opened, it may be displayed in a corresponding area of the folder, or may be displayed by a certain trigger, for example, through a function list. When the hidden function is triggered, the hidden function icon is displayed in the corresponding display area of the folder, and when the display of the hidden function is canceled, the display area is no longer occupied for display.

As another example, the second specified operation can be a voice indication operation for a certain file. That is, when the terminal detects that a file command name, a file number, and the like can be used to determine a voice command of the file, it is determined that a hidden instruction for a file is received, and the file indicated by the voice command is determined as The file to be hidden. Of course, in addition to the various determination manners mentioned above, there may be other determination manners, which are not described herein.

The above implementation manners are to explain how the terminal determines the file to be hidden from the level of the user-based hidden operation. It should be noted that when the file is hidden, it may also be determined based on some hidden rules set in advance. Which files are used to increase the intelligence of the application, so that the user does not need to manually select the pictures to be hidden each time, and the processing efficiency is also improved accordingly. For example, when the terminal receives the hidden instruction, it scans in the first folder, and uses the file whose file information conforms to the preset hiding rule as the file to be hidden. The preset hiding rule can be preset by the user, and the user can set at least one hidden rule to protect his privacy security from multiple dimensions. In the embodiment of the present application, only the preset hidden rule is any one of the following or a combination of at least two rules:

Preset Hidden Rule 1. The file name includes the specified keyword. For the user, some of the files related to privacy may be named according to a certain naming convention. Therefore, whether the file is a file to be hidden may be determined by scanning whether the file name includes a specified keyword.

Preset hidden rules 2. The geographic information of the document meets the specified geographical location; for the user, some of the documents related to privacy may be obtained at a certain place, for example, in their own home, therefore, Whether the file is a file to be hidden can be determined by scanning whether the geographic information of the file is a specified geographical location.

Preset hidden rule 3. The tag information of the file is a specified tag; for the user, some files related to privacy may be added to the file when the user stores some files related to the privacy, so it is possible to scan the file for the specified tag. Determine if the file is a file to be hidden. The tags here can be categorized tags set by the user, such as "Private Photo", "Ordinary Photo", "Selfie", and the like.

Preset Hidden Rule 4. The download link of the file includes the specified domain name. For the user, some files related to privacy may be downloaded from a website, so it is possible to determine whether the file is a file to be hidden by scanning whether the file includes the specified domain name.

Of course, there may be other preset hidden rules, such as whether the shooting time period of the file is in a preset time period or the like, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application.

It should be noted that the hidden command may be triggered by the user at the terminal. For example, the user may set a preset hidden rule required for scanning in the hidden function setting interface of the terminal, and trigger a hidden command. At this time, the terminal may be preset according to the preset. The hidden rule is scanned to realize the process of determining the file, and the manner of determining the scan can greatly reduce the degree of manual intervention and improve the processing efficiency.

202. Create a subfolder in the first folder, create a specified file in the subfolder, obtain a second folder, and move the to-be-hidden file to the second folder. The specified file is used to indicate that a file of the same type as the file to be hidden is not stored in the second folder.

The inventors have recognized that the storage path of folders and files may have an impact on scanning. For example, some applications or terminals only scan the first layer of folders, not their subfolders or the ability to scan subfolders, so you can use subfolders as hidden files in the current folder. Folder.

For example, taking the picture application as an example, referring to FIG. 5A, the first folder is the .tmfs folder, then a .privacy folder can be created in the .tmfs folder, and a .nomedia is created in the .privacy folder. a file to inform the application or terminal that scans the .privacy folder that the media class file is not stored in the folder, and if the application or terminal scans such a file, the .privacy folder will not continue to be scanned. , thus achieving the hiding of the file.

The above step 202 may refer to the creation process when the file hiding is performed for the first time in the first folder, and if the second folder already exists in the first folder, the file is directly moved without being created again. can.

It should be noted that the technical process involved in the above step 202 is actually to hide the file by moving the file to be hidden to a subfolder and creating a specified file in the subfolder. In the actual scenario, instead of using a sub-folder, the following alternative is adopted: a new folder associated with the first folder is created in the storage space on the terminal, and the new file is created in the new file. The specified file is created in the folder, the second folder is obtained, and the file to be hidden is moved to the second folder. The storage space may refer to a storage space for storing a first folder, and the new folder associated with the first folder refers to a new folder that an application can bind. For an application, there may be a folder for default storage, or an associated folder newly created based on user operations, which can be implemented by setting a new storage path in the application settings, so that the application can read the The storage path or write in the storage path to achieve file read and write. This alternative method can also realize the hiding of the file, and the replacement method separates the first folder and the new folder in the storage space, and some applications and terminals generally scan certain fixed folders when scanning. Therefore, this separate processing method improves the difficulty of scanning and also improves the hiding effect.

203. Add encryption information to a file header of the file to be hidden.

The above-mentioned addition of the encrypted information can be referred to the manner of FIG. 5B, and the encrypted information is directly added before the file data. For example, the encrypted information is added to the binary information of the stored photo file. The encrypted information may be a fixed information or an encrypted information that changes based on the file. If the encrypted information is changed based on the file, the encrypted information may have certain characteristics, so that when the file format is restored, the recovery can be performed in the same manner. For example, the encrypted information added to each file includes the same number of characters, for example, the encrypted information includes 12 characters; or the encrypted information added to each file has the same termination symbol, such as the terminator of the encrypted information. 1a. Certainly, the encrypted information may be generated based on a certain encryption algorithm, and the specific form may include letters, numbers, symbols, and the like, which are not described herein.

In a possible implementation manner, the foregoing encrypted information may also be obtained based on user information. For example, according to the preset algorithm and the user information, the encrypted information uniquely corresponding to the user is generated. That is to say, for different users who log in to the application, the added encryption information is different, and for the same user, the encrypted information is the same. Therefore, the step of generating the encrypted information multiple times can be reduced correspondingly while enhancing the security, as long as the encrypted information is generated when the first hiding is performed, the encrypted information can be directly used subsequently.

The above process changes the file format of the hidden file to further implement the file hiding process on the basis of the moving folder. In step 203, the file to be hidden is changed by changing the data structure of the file, but in the actual scene. You can also change the file to be hidden by deleting the file extension in the file format information of the file to be hidden. Since the scanning of the folder by other applications or terminals is generally superficial, it is a scan of the file extension. Therefore, if the file format is changed to some extent, the scanning side cannot recognize the file as its original file type. So you can achieve better hiding effects.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the movement of the file to be hidden is performed first, and the format change is performed after the completion of the movement as an example. In the actual scenario, the format change may be performed before the movement is performed, and then the file to be hidden is moved. This application does not specifically limit this.

In addition, in order to enable the user to view the hidden files, a folder entry may be provided on the application, and the portal may be displayed on the application's menu interface in the form of a folder icon. The menu interface may be the main interface of the application, or may be an interface that can be called out from the hidden state based on a certain operation on the main interface or any interface. The second folder can be encryptedly accessed through the folder entry, and the encrypted password can be set by the user, and the file stored in the second folder is displayed only when the password is detected to be correct. That is, the method further includes: obtaining a view instruction for the second folder, displaying a password input field; and displaying the file stored in the second folder when the password verification received by the password input field passes.

Of course, the above display based on the file in the second folder has other display modes. For example, when the terminal acquires a viewing instruction for the second folder, displaying a first icon of the file stored in the second folder, the first icon is to blur the thumbnail of the file a file icon; when a click operation on the first icon is obtained, on the file display interface of the file, the blurred image of the file is displayed; when it is detected that the file display interface of the file is unhidden When the option is triggered, the file is displayed or formatted and moved. That is, the encryption may not be performed on the second folder, but the hidden effect may be achieved by blurring the file in the second folder, and the blurred display may be first applied to the file icon 601, as shown in the figure. The hatching 602 in 6A shows that the file using the thumbnail as the file icon achieves the purpose of hiding the actual information of the file. Further, the blurred display 602 can also be applied to the file display interface 603 of the file, as shown in FIG. 6B. So that the user cannot know the contents of the file by direct observation. The fuzzification process may be to cover an opaque mask layer on the file display interface of the file, so that the actual content of the file cannot be observed by the outside layer through the mask layer. Of course, the fuzzification process may also be performed based on the fuzzy algorithm. This embodiment of the present application does not limit this. Through the above two layers of fuzzy processing, the user can not observe the actual content of the file from the file icon or the file display interface of the file, thereby realizing the hiding of the file. For example, for a scene in which the file is a picture, the file icon of the original picture is generally a thumbnail of the picture, and the obscured display can achieve the purpose of hiding at the icon level, and even if the user clicks on the picture, the above-mentioned fuzzification is performed. The display can still not display the real content of the picture, achieving the hidden purpose at the display level.

After the file is hidden, if the user wants to unhide the file view, the file can be uncleared through the file display interface. When the trigger operation of the unhide option is detected, the terminal can remove the blur. The effect of the process is displayed while the file is displayed. Of course, the terminal can also perform the inverse processing corresponding to the hiding process by directly performing the file display, so as to restore the file to the original file format and move back to the first folder, so that the user is in the first folder. Can view files in .

204. Acquire a canceling instruction, and restore the file format of the hidden file based on a format recovery manner corresponding to the change mode.

205. Move the restored file from the second folder to the first folder.

The above steps 204 to 205 are steps of how to unhide the file, and after the file is hidden, the hidden can also be cancelled. The unhiding instruction can be triggered based on multiple manners. For example, when the terminal detects the triggering operation on the unhide option, it is determined that the unhidden instruction is received, and the hidden file can be reversed to restore the file format and Move. If the change is made after moving in the above hiding process, the file format is restored first in the reverse operation, and then the order of the movement is performed.

Further, when the terminal detects the un-hidden instruction for the file (for example, the user triggers the unhide option on the file display interface), the password input field is displayed, and the password received in the password input field is displayed. When the verification is passed, the file is displayed or the format is restored and moved. In order to ensure the security and privacy of the file, password verification can also be performed during the unhide operation to prevent malicious users from processing the file at will.

It should be noted that the first folder may refer to a mobile phone system accessing a removable SD card or a folder in a storage space provided by the mobile phone. When the terminal logs in to the cloud storage server, the terminal can usually obtain itself through scanning. The various information in the corresponding folder, therefore, the above file hiding method can also be applied to the folder on the cloud storage server corresponding to the application.

The method provided by the embodiment of the present application, by moving a file to be hidden to a specific folder, since the folder stores a specified file that can declare that the file is not stored in the folder, therefore, when When other applications or terminals scan the folder, when scanning the specified file, it is known that the folder does not store the file of the type, thereby stopping the scanning and hiding the file from the layer of the folder. Combined with the change of the file format, the file itself cannot be scanned into the original type of file. This two-layer hidden mode can hide the file from the actual meaning and achieve the purpose of ensuring privacy and security. Further, since the hiding effect is good, the user has greater willingness to recover, and this can provide more commercial opportunities for more users.

In addition, the file hiding device and the file hiding method embodiment provided by the foregoing embodiments are in the same concept, and the specific implementation process is described in detail in the method embodiment, and details are not described herein again.

The foregoing is a detailed description of the implementation process of the present application from the concept of a file. For the sake of easy understanding, the file hiding method is specifically described as an example. FIG. 8A is a file provided by the embodiment of the present application. The flowchart of the hidden method is described in the specific processing flow of the image application client and the background of the image application client. Referring to FIG. 8A, the method specifically includes:

1. The user clicks on the image application icon on the terminal, and when the click event is detected, triggers a startup instruction to the image application client, the terminal acquires the startup instruction, and initializes the image application client in response to the startup instruction. Thereby launching the image application client.

The image application client can be displayed in the form of an icon on the application management interface of the terminal. For example, the application manager's display interface or desktop, etc., the user can click on the image application icon of the image application client to trigger the terminal's click event. When the terminal detects a click event of the application icon of the image application client, the image application client is initialized, and the initialization process may include reading the startup file of the image application client, creating a client running environment, and the like.

It should be noted that, for the terminal, any touch event to the terminal interface may be detected, and the touch event may include a click event (eg, a touch event with a contact duration of less than 0.2 s) and a long press event (eg, a contact duration greater than 0.5) s touch event or other type of touch event). Generally, when a click event for any application icon is detected, the user can be considered to start the application, and the client can be started based on other touch events in different terminal settings. Make specific limits.

2. When the image application client starts, it reads the first picture in the folder of the picture application.

For an image application, the application folder may be an album folder of the terminal, a folder created by the image application during installation, or a folder created by the user during use. The embodiment does not limit this. Here, only the pictures stored in the folder of the picture application are referred to as the first picture, and, in order to simplify the process of description, the specific number of the first picture is not limited here, and the first picture may actually For one or more.

3. The image application client renders the first image icon based on the first image read, and displays the first image icon on the image management interface.

The rendering process is essentially performed by the image application client by calling the terminal for displaying the image, and the display module of the terminal performs rendering of the corresponding image based on the drawing parameters transmitted through the interface. In an optional implementation manner, when the first picture icon is rendered, the thumbnail data of the first picture may be acquired based on the read first picture, and the thumbnail data is used as the first picture icon. Rendering, so that the user can understand the approximate content of the image through the actual display of the first picture icon, and enhance the amount of information provided by the display.

4. The user clicks on the first picture icon on the picture management interface, and when the click event is detected, triggers a display instruction on the first picture, and the picture application client acquires a display instruction for the first picture, and responds to the display. The instruction is to render the picture interface of the first picture, and display a picture interface of the first picture, where the picture interface includes a hidden option, and the hidden option is used to provide an entry of the hidden process to trigger the hidden instruction.

When the user wants to view a large image of any of the pictures, the specific rendering process is similar to the rendering process in the above step 3, and is not described herein. As shown in FIG. 4A, the picture interface of the first picture may include a hidden option 402. The specific display form may be a lock that is not closed to prompt the user that the first picture currently displayed is not in a hidden state.

5. The user clicks on the hidden option on the picture interface, and when the click event is detected, triggers a hidden instruction on the first picture, and the picture application client acquires the hidden instruction, and in response to the hidden instruction, the first The picture is moved from the current folder to the specified folder.

The specified folder is a folder in which the specified file is stored, and the specific creation manner can be as described above. For the image application client, in a possible implementation manner, the specified folder may have, for example, FIG. 5A. Construct, that is, the current folder is the .tmfs folder, the specified folder is the .privacy folder in the .tmfs folder, and the .privacy folder stores the .nomedia file to indicate the current .privacy A file type file is not stored in the folder.

6. The image application client adds the encryption information to the image data header of the first picture that has been moved to the specified folder, and the effect presented on the terminal is that the first picture icon is no longer displayed on the picture management interface. The hidden operation of the first picture.

Step 6 is actually a process of modifying the picture format information of the first picture. In an actual scenario, the image format information may be modified in other manners, such as deleting the file extension in the file format information of the first image, so that other terminals or other applications do not drop the scan. The picture with the file extension removed is recognized as a picture.

The foregoing steps 5 and 6 provide a specific method for hiding the first picture. In the method, the picture is moved first, and then the picture format information is modified. In the actual scenario, the The image format information is modified, and then the image is moved. This embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

Of course, in order to enable the user to access the hidden picture, the access may include viewing the picture or canceling the hiding of the picture, and the image application client may also provide an access portal for the hidden picture, the entry may It is regarded as the entrance of the specified folder, and the portal can be displayed in the form of a folder icon on the menu interface of the image application client, so that the user can access the hidden image by accessing the entry. The menu interface may be a main interface of the image application client, or an interface that can be called out from the hidden state based on a certain operation on the main interface or any interface, for example, when acquired on the main interface. When a sliding operation is performed from one edge of the interface to the other edge, a menu call instruction is triggered, and the picture application client displays the menu interface in response to the menu call instruction, and the menu interface provides an entry icon of the specified folder. For another example, a menu callout option may be provided on the main interface, and the menu interface is displayed when a click operation on the menu callout option is detected.

The following is a description of the access process of the specified folder in conjunction with the specific operation of the user. Referring to FIG. 8B, FIG. 8B is a flowchart of the process of canceling the hidden file after the file is hidden according to the embodiment of the present application:

1. The user clicks on the folder icon of the specified folder, and when the image application client detects the click event, triggers a view instruction on the specified folder, and the image application client obtains the view instruction of the specified folder, and In response to the viewing instruction, the second picture in the specified folder is read.

For the picture application client, since the picture application client knows the function of the specified folder, when the file in the specified folder is read, the picture may already be stored in the specified folder by default. In order to read the accurate data, based on the above two image format information change methods, there are two different implementations. For the implementation of deleting the extension, the file can be further parsed in the specified folder. Read, and for the implementation of adding the encrypted information, it can be realized by deleting the encrypted information in the picture data header of the read picture data, it should be noted that the deletion is only a temporary deletion at the time of reading. , does not modify the stored image data.

In another implementation manner, the password may also be added to the specified folder, and when the specified folder is accessed, the image application client triggers a click event on the folder icon to trigger the specified folder. The instruction is viewed, and in response to the viewing instruction, the password input field is rendered and displayed; and when the password verification received by the password input field is passed, the step of reading the second picture in the specified folder is performed. This form of password protection limits access to specific folders for further protection.

It should be noted that the pictures stored in the specified folder are referred to herein as the second picture, and the number of the second pictures may be one or more. In the subsequent description for a specific operation, the second picture refers to a picture as an operation object in the stored picture.

2. The image application client blurs and renders the second image icon based on the read second image, and displays the second image icon on the image management interface of the specified folder. For the manner of the specific fuzzification processing, refer to the description of the fuzzification processing in the specific content of step 203.

3. The user clicks on the second image icon, and when the image application client detects the click event of the second image icon, triggers a fuzzy display instruction on the second image, and the image application client obtains a blur on the second image. Displaying an instruction, and in response to the fuzzy display instruction, blurring and rendering the second image, and displaying a blurred image of the second image on a picture interface of the second picture, the picture interface including an unhide option, the canceling The hide option is used to provide an entry for unhide processing. For the manner of the specific fuzzification processing, refer to the description of the fuzzification processing in the specific content of step 203.

4. The user clicks on the unhide option, and when the image application client detects the click event of the unhide option, triggers a canceling instruction on the second image, and the image application client obtains the second image. The hidden instruction is canceled, and in response to the unhide instruction, the second picture is moved from the specified folder to the original folder.

If it is determined that there is no second picture stored in the specified folder after the move, the specified folder may be deleted to avoid the impact on the client operation due to too many paths.

5. The picture application client deletes the encrypted information in the picture data header of the second picture, so that the picture icon of the first picture is in the display state on the picture management interface.

For the image application client, the encrypted information added is pre-stored in the image application client, or generated based on the change of the image data. In both implementation modes, the direct data from the image data header can be used. The part deletes the encrypted information. For example, if the encrypted information is a 12-bit character string, the data of the first 12 bits of the picture data header can be deleted. Through the movement of the picture and the recovery process of the format information, the second picture is not stored in the specified folder, but is stored in the original folder, so when viewed through the image application client, the picture can be directly viewed. Actual image.

The method provided by the embodiment of the present application, by moving a picture to be hidden to a specific folder, since the folder stores a file that can declare the type of the image not stored in the folder, when other applications or When the terminal scans the folder, it can know that the folder does not store the image when scanning the specified file, so that the scanning is stopped, and the effect of hiding the image from the layer of the folder is achieved, and the image format is combined. The change makes the picture itself unable to be scanned into the original type of file. This two-layer hidden way can hide the picture from the actual meaning and achieve the purpose of ensuring privacy and security. Further, since the hiding effect is good, the user has a greater willingness to recover, and this can provide more commercial opportunities for more users.
