❓ How can I hide the MyPhones app icon?

While the MyPhones app itself does not include a "hide icon" feature, you can hide it using built-in settings on your Android device or a third-party launcher:


Option 1: Using built-in Android settings

(Some models only — e.g. Samsung, Xiaomi)

Samsung:

  1. Go to Home screen settings (long press on home screen → tap Settings).

  2. Tap Hide apps.

  3. Select MyPhones and tap Done.

Xiaomi (MIUI):

  1. Go to SettingsAppsApp Lock.

  2. Enable Hidden apps → Choose MyPhones.


Option 2: Use a third-party launcher

Install a launcher that supports hiding icons, such as:

  • Nova Launcher (Free & Prime version)

  • Microsoft Launcher

  • Apex Launcher

  • Smart Launcher

Steps (Nova Launcher example):

  1. Install and set Nova Launcher as your default launcher.

  2. Go to Nova SettingsApp drawerHide apps.

  3. Select MyPhones.


🔐 Note:

Hiding the icon does not stop the app from working. All background tasks will continue running as configured.
