**Simplest answer: Yes, you can.**

Just keep in mind, this method only hides the data from view; it doesn’t actually secure it.

For a deeper and more secure approach, check out this more advanced video by @Robert_Petitto:

I’d also strongly recommend taking some time to practice and learn the basics before launching your app.
