So let me help you guys.
Go to file explorer,
Or file manager.
Create a new folder with the name "hidden"(it Can be anything, just using hidden as example)
Move all your files there ( the ones you want to hide)
Then when you are done. Rename the folder to ".Hidden"
And it will disappear. To view it. Goto that file manager click it and enable the "show hidden items " function

Enjoy.
