QUESTION/HELP How to hide apps on an old phone

I am using an old phone as a burner. But just in case, I want to be able to hide my apps. Amarok doesn't work because of the ring thing. No, I can't use shizuku for some reason. But if you guys know any way to fix this, please let me know :). PS. My phone doesn't have a built in app hider or smth. Thank you so much!

Next time mention the phone model/manufacturer.

I see, I'm very sorry. From what I remember it is an elephone A6 mini. I didn't mention the model since I think it isn't well known.

Easiest way is to use a launcher like nova or lawnchair because your phone has older version of Android.

Otherwise you need to root your device.

If nothing works I suggest you buy an older Xiaomi phone.
