When you launch APP Lock for the first time, you’ll be asked to
choose a passcode or pattern that will be required to open APP Lock and
any secured applications. As many of you already know, it’s best
practice to use a completely unique password that would be difficult for
someone to guess. Also, avoid using the same passcode or lockscreen
pattern as you’ve set for the phone itself.
The app’s main screen displays a comprehensive list of every app you
have installed on your device. For app’s with potentially private or
otherwise sensitive information, flip the lock switch to instantly make
it password protected. Some Android apps you might want to lock are
Email, Facebook, Gallery, Google+, or Messenger. For those who prefer
ultimate protection there’s even the option to lock every single app
(whether or not it’s practical is up to you).
As a bonus, there are specific system functions you can lock like the
ability to install/uninstall apps from the device or Android Market as
well as even answering an incoming phone call.
APP Lock also includes a few convenient settings like whether or not
you’ll need to re-enter the password for an app after toggling the
screen on/off or how much time can pass before being asked for
credentials again.
Pros:
- Individually secure applications and important system functions
- Protect with a number passcode or lockscreen pattern
- Straightforward interface/lock management
Areas for improvement:
- Remove need to press “Ok” button after entering numeric passcode
Conclusion: APP Lock Android app is a simple,
elegant method for protecting various apps’ private information from
snoopy friends, family, or total strangers.
