Hi,
I'm using SOTI default Lockdown in a Samsung phone. First, I put into the menu the default telephone app that Samsung has, but it didn't work. Reading this forum I saw tha I need to use 2 more applications to make it work. So, I putted into de lockdown screen.

How can I hide them?

Thank you very much

You can put those apps as the first (2) ones in the profile and then use a copy of your current template removing those 2 items from it.

Hi Rafael,

I'm so sorry, but I'm so new using SOTI Mobicontrol and I'm not sure if I understand you. What do you mean by "profile"?

Thank you 

Edit: I found my own solution and it's working.

I cloned the default template as you say and I added these lines inside generateApps function:

function generateApps() {
$.each(appsPlaceHolder, function(e, i) {
if(appsPlaceHolder[e] == "" || appsPlaceHolder[e] == null || appsPlaceHolder[e].includes("<MC")) return;
if (void 0 != appsPlaceHolder[e]) {
var o = imagesPlaceHolder[e] != "" ? imagesPlaceHolder[e] : imagesPlaceHolderExe[e] != "null.png" ? imagesPlaceHolderExe[e] : backupIcon
var A = linksPlaceHolder[e],
p = appsPlaceHolder[e];
 
                    if(p.toLocaleLowerCase().startsWith("background")) {
                        backgroundImage.push({
    image: o
    });
                    }
                    else if(p.toLocaleLowerCase().startsWith("logo")) {
                        logoImage.push({
                            link: A,
                            image: o
    });
                    }
else if(p.toLocaleLowerCase().startsWith("oculto")) {
                    null;
                    }
                    else if(p != null && p != "" && !p.includes("MCDisp")) {
                        apps.push({
                            name: p,
                            link: A,
                            image: o
    });
                    }
}
});

Then, I renamed these 2 apps as 'oculto' and they disappear 

Thanks Rafael for your help. Appreciate it
