Last Update:
Android 15 Beta 2 adds " Private Space" — the ability to hide apps on your device.
Private space lets users create a separate space on their device where they can keep sensitive apps away from prying eyes, under an additional layer of authentication. The private space uses a separate user profile. When a user locks the private space, the profile is paused and any apps in the private space are no longer active. The user can choose to use the device lock or a separate lock factor for the private space.
Apps in the private space show up in a separate container in the launcher, and are hidden from the recents view, notifications, settings, and from other apps when the private space is locked. User-generated and downloaded content (such as media or files) and accounts are separated between the private space and the main space.
The system sharesheet and the photo picker can be used to give apps access to content across spaces when the private space is unlocked.
*Since apps in the private space have restricted visibility, some types of apps need to take additional steps to be able to see and interact with apps in a user's private space.
❗️Caution: There is a known issue when creating a private space on a device for the first time removes app icons from the Home screen. Google will release a bug fix soon.
