This looks to be a worthwhile app, but as always, we'd love it if developers who use the App Store would take a cue from other programmers, like Russell over at SweetP Productions (Cookie), and provide a demo which can be downloaded at the developers site, for trial, prior to purchase.

Mac developers have been doing this with their wares for some fifteen plus years, with great success I might add.

I know you guys are feeling the pinch in sales, because I have many developers confide this to me.

Take the hint: provide a test drive, before asking us to buy the car.

It's not the $1 here or the $4.99 there:

It's all of them added up over time that keeps many of us from availing ourselves of your programs, especially when we can't try them out first.

We can't test it's security, we can't try to discover how it works or where it does actually hide the files. We can't try to break it, or break into it.

Security software is one of the most important kinds of "test-it-first" software.

Skedaddle is the ultimate tool for hiding files on your mac. Due to its innovative interface, hiding files and folders is now easier than ever before.

Skedaddle will create a hideout on your desktop. It can be opened with the aid of a shortcut chosen by yourself allowing you to drag files and folders inside of it. Shall you desire to keep intruders out, a password can be set.

The covert is integrated in your desktop and a secret door will open whenever your shortcut is used. Open Sesame! As soon as the door is closed again it is unapparent where your private files are; let alone that you utilize a tool.

Apart from the option to set a password, the position of your hideout can be customized.

Many of the applications available at present that are meant to hide files on your mac take advantage of an easy to see through mechanism. All they do is setting a dot in the filename's front because the finder does not show these. Nowadays external applications are able to seek and uncover these files with ease.

That is why Skedaddle has been created the way it is! We developed an own and absolutely new technique to hide your file in order to protect your files from undesired glances.

Naturally, we will keep implementing new features to ensure your contentment. Update 1.1 is already in the making and will be available soon with a bunch of handy features, such as a window mode.
