I don't think its possible to hide apps with the Rosie drawer..You have to use 3rd party launchers to do it...BUt just confirm this from others
u can use an app called hide it pro from market...it has an extension which allows u to hipe and lock apps as well..very useful app
Hide it pro
Use hide it pro, install Link2SD, after hiding the apps freeze hide it pro with link2sd

Is it possible to change the dock shortcuts?
If so, how?
(i dont want ADW eller launcher pro (paid for both)
Have you tried Go Launcher EX? Completely free, stable and quick. Have it on mine and works a treat. Can then change what apps launch. So I have Opera as my browser, Go Dialer as my phone.
Thx bro, but maby I was not clear enough..
*i DO NOT want any other launcher than the stock one*
(at least until someone can tell me its not possible to change the dock shortcuts )
But thanks anyway, i know and have tried a lot of the homelaunchers, but it just like the stock one, i like the appdrawer where things are sortet in 2 groups, included apps, and downloaded apps.. also arranged alphabeticaly.. makes it much easier to find stuff
its not possible, maybe with some hard coding?
Oh well... ADW it is then

I know what you mean the appdrawer was one of the things I liked about the stock launcher as well.
Go Launcher has the ability to group programs into folders, which makes it easier for me. Doesn't look as nice as stock but works just as well.
Not sure if the other launchers also do this
I'm sure it's possible to change by editing LGLauncher.apk.
I don't have the knowledge or time to look into it though..
I couldn't stop myself having a quick look into the apk.
DockingMenu.smali has a lot of references to some dragging and dropping, did anyone even try draggin new applications onto the dock?
In stock launcher just go into the app list, select edit and drag into the dock whatever app you need.

Hey all, quick pre purchase question. Can you hide apps on the nexus 6? I don't care if you need an xposed mod or not, but I hate app clutter and wanted to know if you can hide them in your app drawer.
Sent from my SM-N910V using XDA Free mobile app
The stock Google Launcher does not have this feature. You'd have to download a 3rd party launcher to do this. Xposed will not currently work either as it doesn't support ART.
What carlz28 said. Most third party launchers have this feature, look into Apex, Nova. I recommend using Nova Launcher.
It depends on if you want to just hide it or disable it. If you disable an app, it disappears from the tray. I've done it with several default google apps that I never use.
Was wondering if with the stock Samsung Launcher Touch Wiz if you can edit your items in the app drawer? For instance:
1. Hide Apps
2. Hide App names
Or do you still need to install something like Nova launcher to do that? I'm thinking about getting the S6 over my Moto X 2014....

You can have it back with other launchers.
But you have to look around for a good one.
I just got the note 5 use to have the S5. My question is on the S5 there was a way to hide icons so the apps icon couldn't be seen on the top right corner there were 3 little dots that you clicked on and selected hide apps the clicked on the apps you wanted to hide then done and now no one could see the app icons you hid. Is there a way or an app that will allow you to hide you app icons? I may have posted this in the wrong place if so please move to proper section. Thanks.
do you mean in the app drawer? there are third-party launchers that allow you to hide apps from showing in your app drawer. I don't use TouchWiz, so idk.

Yeah it was easy to hide your app icons in your app drawer before but now that I got this as a bday gift I don't see a way of doing that. What app is there that I can use that allows me to hide my app icons from my app drawer?
since the old CM ROM days on earlier HTC devices, I've been stuck loving ADW launcher. there's just some settings in it that keeps me sticking with it. I find most ppl to like the style of other launchers though.

You can just disable the apps that you don't want to see. I'm assuming if you don't want to see the apps then you won't be using them anyways? If you disable an app the icon will go away. You can always re-enable the apps at any time if needed.
You could also create a folder in the app drawer & throw all the apps you want to hide in there. Not really hiding the app icons but they'll be somewhat out of the way if there's a bunch you to want to remove. Better than nothing if you don't find a solution.

I downloaded Nova launcher prime cause the free version didn't let you hide the icons in your app drawer. It's not that I don't use the programs I want to hide it's that I don't want everyone else seeing what programs I have like the kids. Thanks for the help. Wish it was like it was before and not that you have to download a program now to get some features back.

Sort of the same concept, hit the top right corner - Edit - then disable the apps you want to hide.
If you still want to use it but have it hidden then I'm not sure.
I think there are launchers with that option available.
Nova Launcher

with note5 samsung has removed hide apps feature.. Also you can access three dots menu by touching and holding back capacitive key in the compaitable app or window..
I downloaded nova launcher prime cause the free one wouldn't let you hide your app icons. Wish the phone still had the feature like it did before. But all works now I can hide my icons. It's not that I don't use the apps I want to hide it's that I don't want everyone seeing what apps I have like my kids to start lol.

hi,
you will be surprised. I would guess about 95 % of the Samsung apps widgets work with Nova Prime I should know as i just again checked my Nova launcher widgets and most of Samsung apps widgets in TouchWiz, i can pin widget, in Nova.
good luck
