LOCKED UP!
HOW TO LOCK INDIVIDUAL APPS IN ANDROID OPERATING SYSTEM?? ....
Over the years, android's security system has become quite robust, offering a range of different options such as the basic slide lock, the signature android pattern lock,along with the gimmicky but ammazingly useful face unlock.
Besides that, there are also the more reliable & more secure password and pin code locks.
Yet, it is a common occurrence that you have to hand over your phone/tablet to a friend or your kids for some basic tasks, and unlocking the first layer of security, measures is essential at that time.The only way to ensure your privacy is to password-protect individual apps.
Simply called "AppLock", this aesthetically beautiful app lets you add an extra layer of security by locking individual apps. Along with that,AppLock also allows you to hide particular photos/videos. It is a pretty simple & elegant app, and one of the most efficient & easiest to use to keep prying eyes out of your personal apps.
Along with the usual goodies, there are also some additional security features, such as preventing the removal of this app or even hiding the AppLock icon.
AppLock is available on Google Play store for free with three account types,
1) Premium: paid, premium features, no ads.
