Simple App Locker does one job, on the right phone
Review & features
What Simple App Locker gets right is the absence of everything else: your app list, a switch beside each entry, a pin or fingerprint prompt, no upsell on the way in. A June 2026 reviewer named two gaps that show up daily: it takes a pin or a fingerprint only, with no pattern option, and there is no timeout setting to control how often it re-asks, which some users want and others are glad to be without.
Key features
- Lock any installed app behind a 4-digit pin or your fingerprint
- Set fingerprint or pin as the default unlock method in settings
- One configuration screen: flip the switch beside each app you want protected
- A master switch at the top right turns the whole locker on or off
Free is the right price for a one-job locker
