AppLock – Secure App Protection & Privacy

Lock apps with passwords, patterns, fingerprints to prevent unauthorized access and protect private data securely.

About AppLock

AppLock is a mobile security application that protects your privacy by allowing you to lock any installed app with passwords, patterns, or biometric authentication. It prevents unauthorized access to social media accounts, photos, messages, and sensitive data on your Android device.

The app features advanced protection mechanisms including intruder selfies that capture photos of failed unlock attempts, a secure photo vault with cloud sync, and customizable lock themes.
