3 Ways to Hide Apps on Your Android Device

If you’re looking to keep your apps private on your Android device, there are a few ways to do so. Here are three methods you can use to hide apps on your Android device.

  1. Use a Third-Party App

There are plenty of third-party apps available on the Google Play Store that can help you hide apps on your Android device. One such app is App Hider, which allows you to hide any app on your device without having to root it. The app is free to use and comes with a variety of features that make it easy to use.

To use App Hider, simply download and install the app from the Google Play Store. Once installed, open the app and select the app you want to hide. From there, you can either hide the app completely or create a fake app that will open the hidden app when opened.

  1. Create a New User Profile

Another way to hide apps on your Android device is to create a new user profile. This method is particularly useful if you share your device with someone else and want to keep your apps private.

To create a new user profile, go to your device’s Settings app and select “Users & accounts.” From there, select “Add user” and follow the prompts to create a new user profile. Once created, switch to the new user profile and install the apps you want to keep private.

  1. Disable the App

If you don’t want to use a third-party app or create a new user profile, you can simply disable the app you want to hide. This method won’t completely hide the app, but it will make it less visible on your device.

To disable an app, go to your device’s Settings app and select “Apps.” From there, select the app you want to hide and select “Disable.” The app will no longer appear in your app drawer or on your home screen.

In conclusion, there are a few ways to hide apps on your Android device. Whether you choose to use a third-party app, create a new user profile, or disable the app, you can keep your apps private and secure on your device.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
