AppLock

ShieldApps Software Innovations

ShieldApps AppLock is an app locker and image hider. ShieldApps AppLock has been developed as an effortless way for Android users to protect their device and personal data against unauthorized access. The app locker is designed for ease of use, and intuitive controls give the users an easy way to enhance their privacy.

Who is it for?

ShieldApps AppLock is an app locker and image hider for Android that allows users to lock selected apps and also hide images or videos, as well as image and video galleries on their device.
With your personal (and also business) privacy in mind, ShieldApps AppLock provides enhanced security against information thieves, curious family members and others that simply have no business going through your stuff!
ShieldApps AppLock allows the user to either lock an application, hide an image (or a complete gallery) and can be camouflaged with another app’s icon so it seems to be something else altogether.
With Shieldapps AppLock, you can still share your device’s password with family, and friends if needed, without risking them going through files and apps that are just not for them to go through…

How does it work?

The accessible application lock can protect any app installed on the user’s device, as well as hide images and video galleries.
ShieldApps AppLock details a list of applications installed on the device. Each application can be accessed and locked individually, with either a PIN, pattern, or fingerprint lockdown, depending on the phones abilities and the user’s preferable choice.
Once the application has been locked, it can only be accessed using the verification method selected.
An image gallery, as well as each individual image, can be hidden in the same manner. While the user enters the application, a list of all hidden items will show in the menu.
