I was wondering if there is an app in the app store that hides other apps. Not just the preinstalled ones, but ones that I download. I want to hide stuff from my parents. I don't want to jailbreak my new iPhone 5c. I just want an app that can hide my apps. Like how there are apps to hide pics? I want one that hides apps. Thanks in advance.

Hehe I see what you're trying to do... Anyway there is no possible way to get around hiding apps without jailbreaking the file system. There is however a possibility of disguising the app to look like another app to prevent them from being interested in checking it out.
Here is my tutorial:
1. Download "ifunbox" on your computer it's a tool used to explore the device's photos and raw file system. (Most of the features are limited without jailbreaking, but iOS 7 made it possible for them to explore downloaded applications)
Win- http://dl.i-funbox.com/ifunbox2014.zip
Mac- http://dl.i-funbox.com/mac/ifunboxmac.dmg
2. Google image a fake app icon and download it. Such as a calculator icon, mail icon, etc...
3. Plug your iDevice into your computer and run ifunbox. Click on your device and click "raw file system". And click the folder containing user applications and navigate to the one you want to disguise.
4. Explore the structure of the app until you can find where they have the thumbnail(s) of the app. Once you find it copy the file name of the image. Then delete the image.
5. Next click and drag the downloaded fake thumbnail from the internet into the SAME folder you just deleted the old one from. RENAME the image to the title of the old one.
6. MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS FOR ALL THE THUMBNAILS IN THE APP IF THERE IS MORE THAN ONE (you can use the same image just rename it to the one you replace.)
And that should be all. Just close ifunbox and unplug your device and you should be good to go. If it didn't do anything try rebooting. That's all I got for ya unless you end up jailbreaking (which there are many more possibilities)
I hope this helped you! Good luck
P.s. Sorry if it's more confusing than it should be

Is there any app to hide iphone photos?
WishIwereE
I recently got the verizon iphone four and i love the camera, but my dad wants to borrow my phone sometimes and I want to be able to take pictures without the fear of him looking through them, so I was just wondering if there was an app where I could keep my photos instead of in my built in photo gallery. It doesn't need to be protected or anything, just a secondary storage unit.
Answer
You can try this app, Camera Plus Pro, has a secondary library, called the quick Roll, You can move all your private photos from the Camera Roll into this app. And also password protect your photos. This way better since, it doesn't scream "Private Photos Here!!!!" that would just make anyone curious rite? Try it, great app, lets you do tons of fun stuff to your photos too!
