Hisn - App Lock & Privacy Android

Hisn - App Lock & Privacy

By: SAIFULLAH App
Lock apps with PIN or fingerprint. Keep your apps and notifications private.

Overview

Features & Capabilities

Hisn (Arabic for "fortress") locks your apps behind a PIN or fingerprint so nobody can open them without your permission.

HOW IT WORKS
- Set a 4-8 digit PIN
- Choose which apps to protect
- When someone opens a protected app, Hisn shows the lock screen
- Unlock with your PIN or fingerprint

FEATURES

- PIN Lock: Set a 4-8 digit PIN to protect any app on your device
- Biometric Unlock: Use fingerprint or face recognition for quick access
- Intruder Detection: Automatically captures a front camera photo after 3 wrong PIN attempts
- Fake Crash Screen: Shows a realistic "App has stopped" dialog instead of the lock screen to fool intruders
- Notification Hiding: Shows only the app's name and a count, and keeps the message hidden until you unlock the app
- PIN Recovery (optional): Link an email so you can reset a forgotten PIN
- Stealth Mode: Hides Hisn from the app launcher so nobody knows it is installed
- Auto Re-Lock: Re-locks apps after the screen turns off, with configurable delay
- Grace Period: After unlocking, switch between apps without re-entering your PIN for a set time
- Hide from Recents: Removes Hisn from the recent apps list
- Dark Mode: System, Light, and Dark theme options
- Cooldown Protection: After 5 wrong PIN attempts, enforces a 30-second cooldown
- Tablet and Foldable Support: Adaptive layout with navigation rail on larger screens

WHY YOU WILL LIKE IT

User Reviews

Dear Hisn Development Team, I really like your Hisn App Lock application, but I have noticed an issue with the “Hide Notification Content” feature. However, it appears that the necessary notifications from Hisn itself are disabled or unavailable. As a result, the Hide Notification Content feature cannot function as expected. Could you please check whether the required notification functionality has been disabled in the app? If so, please enable it or provide the necessary notification settings

looks great, but it don't recognize the PIN I put even if I put exactly the same
