## Description

Lock any app with a PIN, pattern or fingerprint, hide private photos in a vault, hide what apps show in your notifications, and set daily limits on the apps that eat your time. App Lock keeps your chats, gallery and banking apps private.

• Lock chats, gallery, photos, banking, social and shopping apps  
• Unlock with a PIN, pattern or fingerprint  
• Lock whole groups at once: social, finance or games  
• Recommended apps: see which private apps are still unlocked  
• Relock right away, when the screen turns off, or after a few minutes  
  
🔕 QUIET: HIDE NOTIFICATIONS  
• Hide what any app shows in notifications, locked or not: you only see that something arrived  
• App Lock asks when you lock an app if you want its notifications hidden too  
• Get hidden notifications silently, in an hourly digest or once a day at your time (Premium)  
  
⏱️ FOCUS: APP LIMITS & SCREEN TIME

🗂️ PRIVATE PHOTO VAULT  
• Hide photos, videos, documents and audio in an encrypted vault

FREE AND PREMIUM  
App Lock is free with ads: lock as many apps as you like, hide one app's notifications, limit one app and keep 5 files in the vault. Premium is a one-time purchase that removes ads and unlocks every feature.  
  
PERMISSIONS AND PRIVACY  
App Lock uses Usage Access to see when a locked app opens, Display over other apps to show the lock screen, and Notification access only to hide the notifications you choose. Device admin is used only for the optional uninstall protection. Your data stays on your phone.
