For privacy reasons, I prefer to hide some personal apps like finance and habit trackers on the Apple Watch (and of course on the iPhone). While the strong password is always there to protect the apps from unauthorized access, I like to add an extra layer of shield sometimes so they can stay out of sight. Compared to iOS, watchOS offers a better way to show/hide installed apps on Apple Watch. If you haven't tried this clever trick yet, let me walk you through:

The ability to hide Apple Watch apps is something under the hood. As you might have already guessed, it's on the companion app called "Watch" for iPhone.

The Watch app displays the comprehensive list of all the apps you have installed on the smartwatch. Therefore, it becomes quite easy to place them behind a shield. And if you ever happen to take them back, all you have to do is hit the switch. Yes, it's as easy as it ever gets!

2. Now make sure the My Watch tab in the lower left corner of the screen is selected.
