## Description

AppLock adds a security layer to your apps by applying a lock screen. It supports multiple locking methods—password, PIN, pattern, gesture, and voice lock—and can hide private photos, videos, and documents in a secure vault. An intruder alert feature captures a photo of anyone attempting to access your locked apps.

Why choose AppLock: easy to use, lightweight, and privacy-friendly (no passwords or sensitive data collected). It allows customizable lock modes for different apps and overlays a lock screen to prevent casual access. Note: this is not a foolproof security system and should not be used for highly sensitive data.
