Sadly, this isn't possible with the default home screen app that comes pre-installed on most Android phones - but with Nova Launcher, this is easy to accomplish.

Whatever your reason, it would be great to be able to hide app icons from your app drawer. Maybe you have a gesture to launch the app, or maybe a widget handles that for you. There's also a good chance that you don't need to open an app using its home screen icon. Sometimes, we wish to hide apps so that, in the rare times we lend our phone to someone, we don't get judged for a lifetime by what they find. However, sometimes we download apps that we don't want others to see.

We do everything on them, from banking to media consumption. Let's face it - our phones are our heart and soul.
