What does it mean to make a secret contact on the samsung rant?

When ur on ur contact and u want them to be secret, u make them secret. Then u have to go to settings under contacts and go to hide secret. That way it will hide all the contacts that u have chosen to be secret. this is pretty dumb though because to see the contacts, u have to go back to settings and make the contacts to show the secrets. but, if u text to that ';secret'; contact, it will still show up in ur recent texts, but to an unknown number. i hope this helps.
