  Can you say *how* this can be set?

  I don't see any such functionality on my phone (Samsung Galaxy A51
Android 13).

  I can only 'Forget' networks which I connected to at some time, but
that only means I lose the credentials (password, etc.), not that
they're not visible anymore.

  So at the moment, I see my neighbours' networks and the only thing I
can do is (try to) connect to them, not make them invisible.
