Open a hidden app

You can open and use an app that you’ve hidden.

  1. Go to the Home Screen.
  2. Swipe left past all your Home Screen pages to go to App Library.
  3. Tap the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library, then authenticate using Face ID (or Touch ID or a passcode).
  4. The app appears in the Hidden folder.
  5. Tap the app, then authenticate using Face ID (or Touch ID or a passcode).
