If you are serious about your privacy on social networks then it isn’t a good idea to publicly display your Facebook friends. There can be various reasons as to why you might want to hide your friends list on Facebook.

Though the option to make friends private exists since long on Facebook. However, you may get stuck while trying to hide or make friends list private using your mobile phone.
