Use App Lock to Protect Your Privacy

You can lock apps containing private data, such as chat and payment apps, to prevent unauthorised access.

Enable App Lock

Go to Settings > Security > App Lock > Enable, then follow the onscreen instructions to set the App Lock password and select the apps to lock.

If you have enabled face or fingerprint unlock, you can link App Lock with a face ID or fingerprint ID as prompted.

This feature may vary by device.

Change the App Lock Password or Security Questions

Enter the App Lock settings screen, go to > Password type, and select Lock screen password or Custom PIN as the App Lock password.

If you select Custom PIN, you can go on to set a new password and security questions.

Cancel or Disable App Lock

On the App Lock settings screen, do the following:

  • Cancel App Lock: On the locked app list, toggle off the switches beside the apps for which you want to cancel the lock.

  • Reset App Lock: Go to > Disable App Lock > DISABLE. This will cancel all locks, and clear all app lock settings.
