Anyway to make the icons/folder INVISIBLE or hidden

Like lets say I wana make the "iblacklist" icon INVISIBLE
(not Transparent, not Locked, but invisible ) ..... on the springboard
 
Do you want it to be still on the springboard so that you can tap it and open it? I'm not sure of that but you can use sbsettings or springtomize to hide the icon. If its an app you need to open you can search forte hidden icon in spotlight and access the hidden app this way. Hope this helps.
 
Oh wow

How do I hide an app through Sbsettings.. plz tell :)
Some kind of a toggle would be awesome

I also have Springtomize... i'll look into it for suck options

I want the app to be available to me... but if someone else picks up my phone and go thru it they shudnt be able to see iblacklist or open it... that defeats the whole purpose of having it in the first place

Springtomize: setting>springtomize>icons>then scroll down to the hide icons section. In there you can select apps to hide from the springboard but are still accessible via spotlight search!

Sbsettings: bring up sbsettings>more>down at the bottom is you'll see hide apps. In there you can select apps to hide from the springboard but are still accessible via spotlight search!
