How do I hide a contact without deleting it?

To hide a contact without deleting it, follow these steps:

1. Open your contacts list on the device or platform you are using.
2. Locate the contact that you want to hide.
3. Click on the three dots or options menu icon usually located next to the contact’s name or details.
4. A drop-down menu will appear with various options. Look for the option that says “Hide from contacts” or something similar. Click on it.
5. After selecting “Hide from contacts,” the contact will be moved to a different folder or section in your contacts list. This folder is often called “Other contacts” or “Hidden contacts.”
6. The contact is now hidden from your main contacts list, but it is still saved in your device or platform.
7. To access the hidden contact, you will need to go to the “Other contacts” or “Hidden contacts” folder. The exact location may vary depending on the device or platform you are using.
8. If you want to unhide the contact and make it visible in your main contacts list again, simply go to the “Other contacts” or “Hidden contacts” folder, select the contact, and choose the option to unhide or move it back to your main contacts list.

If you need to hide multiple contacts at once, the process may differ slightly depending on your device or platform. Here’s a general approach:

1. Open your contacts list.
2. Look for a way to select multiple contacts at once. This could be done by clicking on a checkbox or selecting a group of contacts using a long-press action.
3. Once you have selected the contacts you want to hide, look for the option to hide them. This might be available in the options menu or as a separate button.
4. Click on the hide option, and the selected contacts will be moved to the “Other contacts” or “Hidden contacts” folder.
5. To unhide multiple contacts, go to the “Other contacts” or “Hidden contacts” folder, select the contacts you want to unhide, and choose the option to unhide or move them back to your main contacts list.
