How to lock any Android app?
Have you ever wanted to lock your Android App? Well, Android phones and tablets do have an option to 'hide' any app from the display screens, but it does not lock them. So your friend can easily change the settings and view your hidden apps. In all such cases, you'd want an app that can lock the apps of your choice and provide a solid authentication mechanism for unlocking. Say hello to a free Android app available in Google Play store that does the job for you - the #-Link-Snipped-#.
The APP Lock will allow you to setup lock code for individual applications. Installing and setting up the App Lock is a cakewalk and requires not more than 2 minutes of your time. Just download the app from above mentioned link and install it. Once installed, launch the app. You will be asked to enter a lock code - which is a number aka password for unlocking applications. Once this step is done, you will be asked to setup a security question which will come handy in case you forget your password.
Once that stage is cleared, you can then choose which individual apps to protect using this app. With just a toggle of the button, you can setup an added level of security on any application to protect your important data and information.
You may ask - will the security layer lapse if the application is uninstalled from the device? Well, there's a way to prevent that - you can setup a lock on uninstall of the APP Lock itself. Doing so will prevent anyone from uninstalling the app from your mobile without properly authenticating themselves with the password you've set.
Once all things are properly set, the system will ask you for your password before you can access the app. If you store very important personal data, phone number, credit card numbers on your phone - we'd recommend you to install this app. Make sure that you don't forget your own passkey.
