Hey guys. I was just wondering if it is possible to "hide" apps in the app drawer. Mainly, I want to keep the critical apps that some apps depend on, but I don't want them to be seen in the app drawer... Some examples would be Voice Search, Voice Dialer, Call History, Clock, PDF Viewer, and Talk. I just like having an uncluttered app drawer, but the only way that I know of doing this is to delete apps.

There is an app in the market, i think its like "App vault" or something like that.
I can't remember who makes it. But I think it does what you are looking for.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it. If that doesn't work, is there anyway this could be ported to our phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540880
Just found out that App Vault disabled the app rather than hiding it. Unfortunately that would break apps the depend on the disabled app. One search I did, I found people who were able to hide apps by renaming the .apk to .bak, but that disabled the app.
bump.
anyone have any info on how to hide apps in your app drawer with default home launcher?
If you're using Launcher Pro Plus, theres a hidden apps feature.

ADW allows this as well. While the app drawer is open press the MENU button and then "Choose Group" > Create New Catalog and then set it up with the apps you want to be visible

Ok, this is my first day with this marvelous device. I installed Tweet caster, as it was my go to twitter app on my EVO. After I installed Tweet Comb and became fascinated by it, tweet caster on the xoom just doesn't carry too far.
Right now, both are giving me notifications and it's annoying, but I don't want to uninstall caster, either. Other than a reboot, what will fix this issue? Can't you simply exit an app? Do I need an app killer? I've been told app killers are unnecessary with Android, but on my EVO I use the app killer all the time.

I don't use either app, but check the settings. You should be able to turn off notifications. In settings, apps, manage apps though you can stop an app. DO NOT USE A TASK MANAGER.
I agree that task managers that automatically kill apps are no longer required by android. However, in order to close apps easily I use an app called Active Apps, since a lot of apps tend to linger in the background. Put the widget on your desktop and it will give you a running tally of how many apps are running and allow you to opt to quit one or all of them.

I don't know if this will be easier for you, but if you have to kill an app you can also find the app in the drawer and drag it onto the "i" , which will take you to the same spot as finding the app in "settings/applications/manage applications/" then finding the app.

First off I want to say that feature that shows similar threads when you start a thread is awesome.
With that said, I didn't find one on that...which is amazing as I am sure there are threads on just about everything here.....probably more than one.
Is there an app that can hide apps in any launcher? I know in several if not most launchers you have the ability but not all launchers....for instance stock....so....is there an app that can hide apps in any launcher?
Hide it pro in the market

I'm initially searching for a web browser inside a widget (just one tab of course..) but then i thought it could be done with any app. I searched for it but didn't find. Do you know any?

Seems that the galaxy note multi windows view is kind of what i wanted... But it's not on other phones!
i have some trouble when i use the official XDA developers app
1.the top and bottom of screen was almost always occupied when i read the topic,especially the bottom,i dont know why there is a blank that seems nothing could do-_-#even ADs i didnt see(personally,i wish never ADs on that).
2.i saw many links on the BBS,but when i click it in app,always asked me to use browser to open it,why dont insert a simple browser in XDA app?
3. for a quick movement,why not set a controller on the right when slide,just like the file system on android.
