Facebook allows users to keep their friends list from getting displayed to visitors to their profiles who they don't know.
Although you can hide your entire friends list from your friends, that isn't very common.
The process of hiding your friends list from the profile visitors from a desktop computer or a laptop PC is simple. However while using an Android mobile phone, you need to use a workaround in order to get the job done.
Here is how you can prevent unknown profile visitors from viewing your friends list using an Android smart phone:
10. Click the pencil like button and you will see two options, click on the Edit Privacy option.
11. On the edit privacy window, select Only Me from the drop down list of options that shows Who can see my friends list option.
12. Once the work is done, click on the Close button to save the changes and to close the opened box.
