Find a person, chat with him, share files, watch movies and listen to music. The developers of the site and its administration regularly make updates that make using the service even more comfortable. But not all users know about them. In this article we will tell you how to hide friends in VK.

How to make my friends list invisible?
How to hide friends in VK? After all, sometimes you want to leave some people from the list visible only to yourself, and not put them on public display. A few years ago, this could be done by clicking on a single link. Moreover, it was possible to make both the entire list and several specific people invisible. This is currently not possible according to site rules. Is it possible to hide VKontakte friends now? Let's start with the fact that currently the maximum number of contacts that can be hidden is 30 people. The procedure for adding to the invisible list is quite simple:
- Go to the "My Settings" section.
- In the upper horizontal menu, select "Privacy".
- Find in the first half of the page the phrase "Who can be seen in the list of my friends and subscriptions".
- Opens a window divided into two parts: on the left is the entire list of your friends, and on the right - hidden contacts (if, of course, you have them).
- To make a personin the invisible list, in the left part of the field we find the desired contact (manually by scrolling with the mouse or using the search bar) and click on the “+” sign located next to it. Done!
- Enter all users you want to hide. As soon as the limit is
reached, the system will display a message about it.
Now you know how to hide friends in VK. But what if a friend needs to be hidden for certain users? In the same section where we were earlier, immediately after the line "Who can be seen in the list of my friends and subscriptions" follows "Who can see my hidden friends." There you can configure those users who will still see those whom you have hidden from public view. In addition to these subtleties, there are many others that greatly simplify the work in a social network. In this article, we looked at how to hide friends in VK.
