Hey guys so I've had my Oneplus One for about a week now and I was wondering, I'm using the stock trebuchet launcher, and I have a few applications that I would like to hide so that when people are looking through my phone they don't see those specific applications, but I still use those apps on a daily basis. I know that with trebuchet you can hide apps from the app drawer and hide the shortcuts of the app, but I havent been able to find a way to access the apps without unhiding the apps once again, Does anyone know a way of doing this? If this is not possible does anyone have some suggestions for an application that could possibly change the picture that the shortcut of the app shows say if I wanted to hide the camera I could install an app that would show a audio player. I already downloaded applock and that password protects it but the apps are still visible. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank's in advance.

You can use an app such as: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartanuj.hideitprokey
There's a free version as well though it may be limited.

yeah i downloaded that as well but it doesnt allow you to hide any applications in the way that i was referring to, thanks anyways though
I forgot that the app hide portion requires root. But it does work. You just access your hidden apps through audio manager.
