Locking apps on an Android phone enhances privacy and security. Here’s a concise guide to lock apps effectively, based on the latest methods available as of June 2025:
1. Use Built-in App Lock Features
Many Android phones come with native app lock functionality, depending on the manufacturer (e.g., Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus). Here’s how to use it:
Steps:
Go to Settings on your Android device.
Navigate to Security or Privacy (may vary by device).
Look for App Lock, App Privacy, or a similar option.
Select the apps you want to lock.
Set a PIN, pattern, password, or enable biometric authentication (fingerprint/face unlock).
Confirm and enable the lock.
Supported Devices: Samsung (Secure Folder), Xiaomi (App Lock), OnePlus (App Locker), etc.
Note: The exact path may differ. For example, on Samsung, you might use Secure Folder under Biometrics and Security, while Xiaomi has a dedicated App Lock in the Security app.
