RajPratapAnand In reality, the problem arose when Nothing implemented the private space for the first time. I abandoned Nothing for this reason too: hidden applications were no longer detected by others (not even the Play Store), which rendered this feature useless. The reason you want to hide apps is because you don’t want them to be seen, not because they need to be isolated within the system. This problem was present on all Android devices that implemented private space. Gradually, with various reports, the system was fixed by manufacturers, restoring the ability to hide app icons normally. Nothing did this with 4.0, but the new feature was mixed in with the others and I hadn’t seen it.
