iOS, with the launch of its new APIs, opens the door for developers to modify operating system settings that until now were extremely blocked by the Cupertino company. One of these functions is precisely to block access to applications through a security code or any other system.
We show you “Lock”, an application that allows you to lock your applications and thus make your iPhone even more secure.
The first thing you need to know is that App Lock is only available for iPhone or iPad devices running iOS 16 or later. This, taking into account that iOS 16 is compatible with almost countless devices from the last six or seven years, makes it an extremely compatible application that will delight many users.
How App Lock works is quite simple, it will allow us to hide or lock applications using Face ID or an unlock code.
Once the application is opened, we will see a list of applications that we have installed, either on our iPhone or on our iPad. The application itself will organize them according to their category, although we can organize or search them ourselves thanks to its tools.
Some of its most important functions are:
- You can hide any productivity or finance apps using the Category App Lock tool.
- It allows you to hide apps even from the iOS library.
- Block access to apps with Face ID and password lock.
In addition to the above, it has a series of paid features such as blocking the installation of certain applications and even blocking in-app purchases.
As we said, the application is free, even the trial of its full version. The price of the full version is $49.99, but you can subscribe for weeks or even years.
