I have iOS 8.4, jailbroken.

Trying to hide a bunch of apps from spotlight. I don't like the Spotlight Search in general, so I've used the system settings to set it so it ONLY searches for apps. Now the issue is I want to narrow it down to be more of a quick launcher tool, so when I search, I only want it to search about 50 of my 177 apps installed on my phone.

Is there a tweak\method where I can toggle which apps spotlight displays? In other words, I want to hide apps from Spotlights results.

EDIT: I see 83 views on this thread and nobody has suggested anything. Does that mean it's not possible, or nobody knows, or what?
