Pixel 2: How to hide apps

[Joe]

Most phones allow you to hide apps from showing up in the app drawer. The default Pixel Launcher doesn't have this ability. You'll need to install a 3rd-party launcher, such as Nova Launcher.

If you do install a 3rd-party launcher, look in the app drawer settings to hide apps. In the case of Nova Launcher, follow these steps:

1. Long press the home screen
2. Select Settings
3. Select App & widget drawers
4. Scroll down to Hide apps
5. Check all the apps you wish to hide

Which 3rd party launcher do you use
I bet they just changed the nomenclature.
