This is a launcher specific feature. Stock launcher doesnt have this option. Nova launcher along with many other custom launchers have the ability to hide apps.

You can launch shelf on any launcher with a shortcut from back or recent keys shortcut. I use nova launcher and i've set double tap recent key for shelf.

Hi All!
I really love the new TouchWiz but one thing that is annoying is the scrolling on app drawer. it to much iphone and not so comfortable.
so I wonder, is there a way to change the app drawer so it will be scrolling down and has 3D like the stock android/adw?
Thank You!
Switching to an alternative launcher like ADW Launcher EX is probably the easiest solution.
Try the "Nexus"-preset & "Vertical new" for the app drawer!
I think you didn't understood me properly(or maybe I didn't explain myself clear):
I really like what samsung did with the TouchWiz 4. So I want to keep it.
I want just to change the AppDrawer to be vertical scrolling(prefer with 3d).
Is theres a way to do that?
Im used to app drawers with the apps sorted in alfabetic order.
Is there an easy way of doing this in TW4?

In the app drawer, hit menu and then 'List view'. A reboot will default to the original.
No 3d I'm afraid.

I had a quick question for you Apex Launcher users...
I recently decided to try hiding some apps in the app drawer... I was wondering, is there any way to access these apps without un-hiding them???

A search should turn them up assuming you include applications in your searches.

This.
Also, if you used the market to install the particular app that is hidden, you should be able to open it from "my apps" as well

If you download a custom launcher from the market you can change the names to whatever you like. GO Launcher EX will allow you to change the names however due to GO Launcher being a RAM hog your phones performance will slip a little. I'm unsure if other less-RAMhogging launchers will let you do that but you can look on the market.

Yes. It's been a while since I used GO Launcher so I've forgotten how you get the menu up to change it, but it definitely works.

You don't have to capitalize every letter of every word. That seems very illiterate.
Also, thanks for the share.
Holo Launcher can do it easily.

Thank you for this app, exactly what I needed to hide apps without using a particular launcher.
Does anyone know of an app that allows me to double tap the home navigation button to bring down the notification panel on my pixel 2 xl? Thanks in advance.

I know I'm not answering your question but you should try the gesture feature to bring down notification instead. I think it's better plus you don't need to run a third party application.
Go into settings>system>gestures>enable swipe down for notification
I really would like the swipe down to bring notifications down feature, that nova launcher does provide. Thats somehow a must have feature for me. I'd really like to use the stock launcher, but i just keep going back to nova because of this. Oh, and the icon packs... I don't find the swipe down on the fingerprint sensor that intuitive....

If you guys like the mod by amir. I found another one that's better in my opinion. It gives you options for how the the gradient is and more columns and rows, etc. I use the 6.1 mod.
