User reviews

Users appreciate AppLock Pro for its security features like password and fingerprint locks, spy camera, and customization options, making it suitable for keeping apps safe and controlling access, including for children. However, many users are frustrated by frequent, intrusive ads that interrupt usage and settings changes. Significant security flaws were reported, including apps briefly opening before locking activates, locked apps unlocking after phone reboot, and fingerprint glitches. Also, the app can be bypassed by clearing data or using app killers. Overall, effective but hampered by ads and security concerns.

Pros

Effective at securing apps with password and fingerprint lock options
Includes useful features like spy camera, hiding notifications, and customization
Lightweight and does not slow down the phone
Good for preventing children from accessing certain apps
Allows customization of backgrounds and themes

Cons

Excessive and intrusive ads, especially in the free version, interrupting usage and settings changes
Security flaws such as apps briefly opening before lock activates and apps unlocking after phone reboot
Inability to change password without watching ads and very limited recovery options
Fingerprint recognition is glitchy or unreliable
App can be easily disabled by clearing cache/data or using app killer apps

Awesome app! It's definitely free and easy to use (despite the premium version)! Definitely recommend it. Though, I only wish to have more fake app icons OR be able to upload one and change the name, as well as more natural fake error messages (an error message that looks like a standard error message depending on phone model)

I understand that there are ads in the free version, but after watching the ad, the app does nothing and stays frozen in the ad screen. It is impossible to change the password! Additionally, the app sends a notification message to the notification bar (appear on top permission for Applock) when opening certain apps where Applock Pro can be disabled!! Really bad loophole guys!!
