I have a Samsung Watch 6. I want to hide some apps somewhere, so when someone looks at the app panel below I don't want it to show up there. This is possible, at least if it means deleting the app's logo. How can I do this?

@george058 You don't include a screenshot but I don't believe that is possible on the watch. You can group apps in folders but it won't hide them. 

I guess that you will need to fess up to having that app.

I'm trying to figure out what app could possibly be downloaded to the watch that would need to be hidden.

Who is looking at your watch besides you? They would either have to know your pin or it would have to be on your wrist.  You can't hide apps, only uninstall them and you can't uninstall any Google or Samsung apps.  You can, however, combine them into a folder, but the first four icons will still be visible to anyone looking.

You can't, nor should you have to.

Your watch is on your wrist, who is getting that close to you that you think they are spying on whats in your app drawer.

Put them in folders and put the ones that should be kept secret as beyond the 4th app.
