## Description

**Hidey Hole** is a specialized wallpaper app designed exclusively for the Samsung Galaxy S10 family (S10, S10e, and S10+). It showcases a curated collection of wallpapers that creatively conceal the front camera cutout, helping users enjoy seamless and aesthetic home and lock screens.

The app sources wallpapers from the popular /r/S10wallpapers Reddit community and Galaxy S10 Wallpapers site, syncing new images every hour to six hours. Users can browse by popularity or recency, filter by device or category, and download wallpapers easily. A standout feature includes advanced image adjustments—brightness, contrast, saturation, and blackpoint—to tailor wallpapers for better readability and appearance. Additionally, Hidey Hole utilizes an innovative algorithm to auto-align and scale wallpapers, compensating for slight differences in camera hole position across S10 models, ensuring a perfect fit.

Completely free and ad-free, Hidey Hole respects user privacy and is released under GPLv3. While it currently supports only Galaxy S10 variants, its scalable design hints at potential future compatibility. For enthusiasts who want to hide the camera hole beautifully and customize their wallpapers, Hidey Hole offers a unique and user-friendly solution.
