How to Hide Media Files from showing up in Gallery of Android Phones

For Android Phones----------------

Many times we have to give our phone to Friends or Family when they ask for it and in some situations we can't refuse it. But we actually dont want them to see some Media Files( like pictures,vedios or Audios ) which are private.

In that case, u need the below tweak!!! 
Steps as Follows====

1) Open your phone's  File Manager

2) Go To that  Folder which contains your media files.

3) Rename the Folder by putting a dot(.) infront of the folder Name. ( but dont forget to change the  File Manager settings for showing Hidden Files)
                                       OR
3) Paste a " .nomedia " file in that folder.

and thats it. You are Done !!! 


NOTE :- You  dont need to get or create a " .nomedia " file. If you are Whatsapp User then you actually Have it. Its in your "Profile Pictures" Folder. Just Copy it and paste to the folder whichever you want.

If any have Query feel free to Comment here. I would Love to reply it asap.
