How can I hide my application?

I have created an application that should only be available as a tab on a page. I don't want it to be findable over the search box from Facebook. The same problem was already questioned here by another guy but without an answer: http://forum.developers.facebook.net/viewtopic.php?id=108179 Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Sorry, I think I found the application in the search box only because I was still logged in as the developer of it.

Set the Application to Sandbox mode, in the Settings->Advanced section. This will only allow developers of the application to see it.

In another Forum I've read, that FB plans to give the possibility for app to have no pages. Should wait for one of the next developer love

You want to hide it because it is in "development stage" so what you need to do is deactivate the "social discovery" under advanced configuration of your app, the sandbox mode will only allow usage from developers or people assigned to the roles tasks.

Why don't you want it to be found?

You don't want others to be able to add it as a tab to their pages too? Or you do not have a canvas version so you don't want people to end up on a 404 page?

For the first case, there is a way to restrict your app to only a specific page or set of pages. I can give you more details if you want
