I've worked in mobile development before. We hide the traffic by batching it, sending it through i.e. Google Play Services (so it looks like Google traffic), or simply sending it all to a relay server so it doesn't look diverse. In any case, all your apps are doing this, and the ones that want to hide it, can.
