In this example, we will hide a SharePoint List named “SharePlus Videos” by  adjusting the server-side MobileNavigation settings.

The following is a screen shot of the “SharePlus Videos” list being displayed in SharePlus.  The list name is displayed on the left pane with it’s contents on the right.
