Android Private Space ensures a secure location for hiding apps.

There’s no doubting that with the stock version, you get to experience Android the way Google intended. However, good skins on top of the OS can make it more functional. A Secure Folder, for example, is available in Samsung’s One UI. It provides a safe and private location to store apps and data. And something similar is now available in the stock version. It’s known as Android Private Space.

The Private Space feature is presently in the preview stage on Android 14 QPR2 Beta 2. That means the feature is not yet completely operational. Google will almost certainly enable it in the upcoming release. When it becomes available, you will have a safe place to conceal apps.

You can’t test how the Android Private Space feature will work because it isn’t currently available. However, Android Police has obtained a glimpse of the feature. To get an idea, look at the screenshots attached below. Again, this is not the final version; Google will most likely polish it more.

Nonetheless, the screenshots do show that the Private Space feature will work similarly to Samsung’s Secure Folder. But it’s not clear yet whether it will offer support for documents, pictures, and other files. We need to wait for the stable version to find that out. And we will definitely keep you updated when Google allows more users to try it out.
