Ghost Pigeon Symbian app enables stealth texting

A new stealth application from Sonaworks Ltd called Ghost Pigeon allows certain phone content to be kept hidden from prying eyes.  This will no doubt prove invaluable to celebrities or government officials who will be wary of their private information falling into the wrong hands.

Ghost Pigeon runs on Symbian devices and promises to be completely unique in the mobile market.  Once downloaded, the software creates an exact replica of the phone's standard menu and provides the user with a unique pin number used to access the secret second menu.  

This alternate menu will enable the user to select contacts they wish to remain hidden. Any communication from these contacts will not appear within the standard menu, just the hidden one.  The software's attention to detail is highly impressive and will even allow photos, videos and emails to remain totally private and invisible.  

The package costs £10 to download and is available from the Ghost Pigeon website.  Currently it is only compatible with Nokia handsets, although Sonaworks are developing other versions for the Apple iPhone, Samsung and Sony-Ericsson handsets, amongst others.
