Hello, I've just installed Phone Control and also Phone Control Key in my son cell phone. But I still see the application in the appl. list and it is even possible ti un-install it without any restriction. I've also added the password to open the appl. but it is very strange as it is still visible and easy to un-install ..
Any indication on how to hide the appl. and restrict the un-installation ?
The phone is a LG 970 with Android 2.3 so it should be compatible with the latest feature above ..

Thank
Guido
 
OP, given that they are listed as separate apps in Google Play, it would stand to reason that they show up as such on your phone. Some devs include a feature that allows the app-key to hide itself from your view after a reboot. Assuming that option isn't there, you have two choices:
A. You can email the dev and see if that can be added in a future update to it
B. Install a replacement home launcher, as many of them include features that allow users to hide apps from their view.
