Well, it is just a toy...
"It's not just me that sees this as vaguely lacking in credibility, is it?"
You are certainly not alone.
Beyond the Conceal API this all seems rather pointless to me. I mean, is it really possible to take this at all seriously when the authors state, "our approach provides an added step of obfuscation that increases security of the data". Well, so now obfuscation increases security? Hmmm. Does not compute.
DroidStealth relies on a simple PIN for decryption and the APK is distributed though untrusted sources? This is looking like good, secure logic - not.
To be honest, I should have stopped reading at their claim that 'obfuscation... increases security of the data' and gone back to doing something worthwhile.
