It is occasions we may need an application to be seen for privacy issues or even for security issues. If we sometimes leave the mobile phone to our children, perhaps it is a good idea to hide the applications on Android or restrict them so that they cannot see or access them and avoid scares. Imagine having a shopping application with your registered card data and entering a day and being used, it can be a big scare..
Social network applications are also prone to want to be hidden for some reason, if our mobile is visually accessible or someone usually picks it up because we improve our privacy if we protect it from seeing applications or putting passwords. In the Realme we have the possibility of both password encrypting applications and hiding them in sight and not knowing that they are there.
The following videotutorial leaves you the steps both to hide the applications and to see the hidden applications in a Realme X2, Realme X2 Pro or Realme 5 Pro..
