Mastering the Art of Concealing Apps on Your Android Tablet
In the digital age where privacy is paramount, Android tablet users have the luxury of keeping certain apps out of sight. While your device comes equipped with native features to conceal apps from the home screen, you might also consider exploring third-party solutions such as Hide App and Nova Launcher. Let’s delve into the simple steps to invisibly tuck away your apps using the built-in tools of your tablet.
- Initiate the process by swiping up from your home screen to bring forth the launcher.
- Spot the three dots located on the right of the search bar and give them a tap.
- A drop-down menu will appear; here, you’ll want to select ‘Settings.’
- Within the settings, there’s a ‘Hide Apps’ option—click on this.
- You’re now presented with a list of your apps. Simply choose the one you wish to hide.
- After making your selection, confirm by clicking ‘Done.’
VoilĂ ! The apps you’ve chosen are now out of sight on your home screen. Should you need to revisit any hidden apps, a trip back to the Settings menu is in order. Select ‘Apps’ from the drop-down, then ‘All Apps’ to reveal every application installed on your tablet, including the hidden ones. For those who like to dig a bit deeper, the ‘Special Access’ section under Apps is another avenue to locate your concealed apps on Android.
