How to hide the applications installed as standard in the htc one m8

The HTC One M8 from the Taiwanese company HTC incorporates an interface called Sense 6.0 as standard, and in addition to its characteristic design, this interface brings with it certain applications installed as standard on the mobile. Therefore, when we turn on this terminal for the first time we find a multitude of applications that we have not installed at any time. The positive aspect of this phone is that the HTC One M8 also incorporates an option that allows us to hide all the applications we want, without the need to uninstall them or go into complex formatting processes that are reserved only for the most advanced users.

Therefore, in this tutorial we are going to explain how to hide applications installed as standard on the HTC One M8. To follow this tutorial we will not need to delete any application from the mobile, but we will simply hide those that are not useful for our day to day.

How to hide the applications installed as standard on the HTC One M8

1. The first thing to do is open the list of applications of our HTC One M8. The list of applications is the screen on which all the programs that we have installed on our mobile appear. We look for the Settings application (represented by the icon of a gear) and click on it.
2. Once inside, the next thing we must do is enter the " Applications " section.
3. In this new screen all the applications installed on our mobile will be listed. If we look at the top right of the screen we will see a button with the drawing of three small dots placed in a line; click on this button and, once the additional settings tab has been displayed, click on the option " Hide / show applications ".
4. Again we will see a list with all the applications installed on our HTC One M8, with the difference that this time we can select all those applications that we want to hide on the mobile. We simply have to click once on the applications that we want to hide and, once we have finished, click on the " Done " button.

In this simple way we will have managed to completely hide all the applications that do not interest us from our list of applications. We can show the applications again at any time by following this same process with the difference that, in the last step, we must click again on those applications that we have previously hidden.

Of course, it is also important that we know that this tutorial only serves to hide the applications and not to uninstall them completely. Uninstalling an application that comes standard on a mobile phone can cause some headaches for the average user, so these simple steps are the most advisable for anyone who wants to get rid of factory applications.
