AppLocker • Passcode lock apps

Needs to have the option like the macOS app that asks for the password to open the app without setting a time limit then when the app is closed it locks it again wether the app was open for 1 min or 15 mins.

doesn’t work

I love this all because it does not require a vpn to block apps. I just would like them to add website blocking as well. I just can’t use an application that requires vpn because I already use another vpn regularly for other purposes.

I tried this app locker to protect a couple of sensitive apps From prying eyes. It did work and required my touch IDor password to unlock the app. I liked it at first, But then it became annoying every time the app would time out on me and I had to unlock it again. Lost some unsaved work that way. That said, it still worked to protect the apps UNTIL I decided to remove the lock and could not figure out how to do so on only one app at a time. So I decided to delete the app locker completely and maybe reinstall to start over or leave it off. This is where the security issue became apparent. I was able to delete the program with no password or touch ID required and it released all of the locks. Anyone with access to the iPad could have accessed all the locked programs by simply deleting the app locker app. When multiple users are allowed on the iPad, this is not acceptable. I gave a 3 stars because of the app working to lock apps but only a 3 because of the security problem. I considered a 2.

Doesn’t work at all after a couple days of use. Doesn’t lock or hide any apps anymore.

I would love to the option “Do not allow <specific> app to be deleted “. I want to be able to delete any app whenever, but not certain apps I want to protect.

I use this app to lock other apps — it’s easier than Shortcuts or Screen Time itself and has some other useful features. Recently, though, this app and others like it have had trouble presenting the apps list, but if you know what apps you want to secure, you can do it using the search bar. Still, I hope the app list problems can be fixed. My only other criticism is that the app password is only four digits; six alphanumeric would be better, and some sort of timeout feature would be good, too.

Worked great until the most recent OSX update. I cannot access programs that I was using it on — and I’m unable to delete it, close it (using the on screen command), update it, or access with finger ID, and the password (which I’ve long since forgot) no longer appears in my password log. And so, this lock out, does not allow me access to do anything because I can’t close the screen (again, on screen command instructions don’t work). I’ve tried sending a support request via the app and it will not send to the “hello” email address.

Everything works fine before today. Now it keep crash for me. I can not access all my protected apps now. Update: Updated my app, but still get crash. good finally find a way to delete the app(was set for deny app delete), and reinstall the app fix the problem. updating the appstroe ratings too

The worst app it won’t unlock my apps because I haven’t signed up for a subscription 🙄
