  • When the document opens, right-click the row you want to hide. Then select Hide row. In this example, I want to hide row 3. I will right-click on row number 3.
It is important to click on the row number column. If you click on the row instead of the row number, the option to hide the row will NOT be displayed.
  • The row will be hidden immediately. Once the row is hidden, two arrows will be displayed around the hidden row.
  • To unhide the row, hover over the arrows – the background will change from black to white. Then click on any of the arrows.

Option 2: Hide Rows via the Android App

  • Open the Google Sheets App on your Android phone.
