I have an application whose icon does not need to be visible to the user all the time. Can an application icon be hidden and unhidden when needed. I prefer not to go through the install or uninstall process. I can probably save the apk file to the device, uninstall the app and install from the apk file when needed. Is there a better way to do it?
Thank you
On the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, there is an option in the applications menu icon where you can selectivly hide and unhide applications icons using checkmarks without uninstalling them. Can this be done programmatically via B4A?
Thank you
I don't think that it is possible to change its visibility after installation. You can hide the icon by removing the "home" action from the intent filter.
