Step 1: Launch the Settings app on your OnePlus 13, scroll down and tap on "Security & Privacy". Here, go to the 'Special Features' section and select "Hide Apps".
Step 2: You will be prompted to set up a privacy password if you hadn't already set one up. This can be a different password from the lock screen one.
Make sure you enter a password that you'll remember. If you're lock screen password is only privy to you, you can also use it here as the privacy password.
Step 3: Once you enter the privacy password, tap on "Get Started" in the 'Hide Apps' page. This will take you to the 'Access Methods' page.
Step 4: Under Access Methods, choose how you'd want to access your hidden apps. There are two methods:

Select this method, then tap on "Customise" to proceed to the next step.
Tap on the icon to select another icon of your choice, then edit the name to one you prefer. Once you do this, tap on "Save".
Access Hidden Apps via Dial Pad: Here, you have to enter your access code on the dial pad to access your hidden apps.
Once you select this option, tap on "Settings" to proceed to the page where you set an access code. It should begin and end with '#', for instance, #0000#.
Set the access code and tap on "Done" to confirm. To save your changes, tap on the blue "Done" button once again.
Step 5: Tap on the blue "Add Apps" icon to select the apps you want to hide from the list.
Step 6: Toggle the buttons next to the apps you want to hide, to the on position. The toggle should turn blue. Hidden apps will then be moved to the 'Hidden' category.
Hidden apps will not appear on the Home Screen, in the notification drawer or recent tasks. You will also not be able to search for them using the Global Search function.

Step 4: Instead of choosing the Access methods option, you can also select "Unlock Methods".
Here, tap on "Privacy Password" and choose whether you want to turn it off or change it. You can also set a security question or recovery email, in case you forget your privacy password.
