All in all this app works well, but after restarting the phone app does not switch on automatically, so it is possible easily to enter any previously blocked application. Not possible to switch off security in bulk. It is not possible to remove app logo from notification tray after restart. Sometimes app asks to enter password every time you use some application, sometimes don't.

Like the app. But, it DOES NOT TURN OFF. You will always have to use biometrics, or a password. I've tried to turn it off many times to no avail. It just turns itself back on. The App definitely works though. Just need to fix that one thing.

Everything's good except some bugs How my home screen and recent apps get locked if I set passcode. There's no uninstall prevention or to lock 'package installer' app to lock uninstall button. The app itself should be accessed by passcode or pattern only for best security

This is an absolute scam of an app. I installed it, set my security pattern, locked about 15 apps with it, and when I tried to use those apps which were locked, it wouldn't except the security pattern I had assigned. Stay well clear of this.

Tbh I love the app. My phone is a Samsung and I'm surprised that the app didn't show me lots of adds. It's fast and very practical. The only issue is that I noticed that sometimes it doesn't block the apps I chose. Sometimes I can use an app that I chose to be blocked and it lets me use it without entering a password. I would really appreciate if u guys could fix that. I had to re open the app for it to start working normal again. That's my only concern. The rest, is beautiful. Thank u🫶

Thank you for your effort in giving us a useful app. But i want to mention that I don't like the idea of the broswer in it because i use the app to hide the browsers, and you give me one in the app 🫣. I hope that you can replace it with tracking usage it will be good. But overall, amazing work on this app

At first very useful and convenient but after a while (about 2 weeks)made my phone go slow and didn't lock some apps that it said were locked then when it took a pic of the intruder it wasn't even visible to see who or what it was.

Latest update made sure someone was able to get into my phone as biometrics were displaced for pattern security between screens. Its a good app but sometimes didn't work at all so only had the security my device provided. Disappointing

The app functionality has become compromised since the latest update which is forcing me to enter a pin instead of the previous fingerprint. It is counter intuitive to be constantly entering a pin which others can easily see which is the reason I chose to use biometrics in the first place. Please remove the forced pin entry and allow people to choose what kind of unlocking mechanism to choose. I will change my rating back to 5 stars once it is done. Thank you

Recently installed to safeguard Google parental app. However after a week or so it started to protect against when you go to use a previously used app. Really, really annoying. Can't find the setting to switch it off so 1 star!
