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.

Pattern lock is fine, but why can you only use the fingerprint primarily registered to your phone? Obviously, that's pointless if this is to restrict access of a child's phone. Please fix so different fingerprints can be used, ideally more than one so both parents can unlock.

I've used this App Lock for a long time and I'm a premium user. I've never had problems using this App Lock but I just got a new phone and it's updating to Android 12 I'm going use this like I always have. Hopefully it works as good as it always has.

Great and straight forward, a minor issue that needs correction, this app doesn't lock apps always but does so on prompt. I need my chosen apps to remain locked permanently.

Best one by far. It doesn't show the screen when you zoom out of the app if thst makes sense, yknow the option to go out of apps before you swipe it to cancel out of an app after use? Yeah. Also it works still.

I don't comment about apps until I am reasonably certain about what I am saying and after a fair time with this one I can say in my experience that it works, is quite easy to install and operate and seemingly reliable. I have not been able to get around the app once locked and am confident that it offers genuine security. It's worth every penny of the asking price of €5.

Not very impressed with this app lock. The fingerprint feature is nice and also very necessary because I'm constantly having to unlock an app with it- even if I've just used the app. Other lock apps have a feature that permanently unlocks a just used and unlocked app until the screen is shut off (at which point they'll lock again). Biggest con is that this app likes to close randomly by itself so all previously locked apps are now unlocked until you go back into this lock app and reset it again.
