Need app to hide text message conversation.

Wouldn't it be better to simply 'delete' the conversation? It's not like you'll forget what was discussed. Having said that, it has been 'my' experience in the forums when someone is very specific about an app like you are, they pretty much already know which one it is.

SMS messages are not private, they are between you and the recipient AND both of your providers. If you want a true private chat look into something like Threema which is a secure end to end chat application.

You can hide them by sending them to your email and dropping them in a folder. 1st Turn off iMessage or uncheck the email in Send and Receive. Then go to the iMessage or text and long press on a speech bubble and tap "More". Then tap the arrow in the lower right corner. Mark texts. Then enter your email address at the top. Then move the cursor down. Hit send. Go to email and hide the texts.
