Can be easily bypassed. Go to recent apps screen. Click open in split screen or picture in picture.

Although it is draining the battery, it constitutes a good alternative to Norton and Samsung secure folder if you are using a Fairphone 5 (and cannot use these two app). It also seems to respect privacy (by comparison to other apps on the market).

Really struggled to find an app that works smoothly with a Google Pixel 6 Pro. Only app of about 15 I downloaded that worked smoothly and easily. Like how it locks app after using each time and looks for fingerprint again each time even if screen not locked. Great app without excessive ads or up selling of other apps.
