## Description

App Lock - Lock apps lets you batch customize icons and app names, set a password to unlock apps, and hide apps to protect your privacy. It supports biometric unlock (TouchID/FaceID) on compatible devices and offers a variety of icon options to personalize your home screen.

Key features include changing app icons from photos, the built-in icon library, or color icons; renaming apps; setting a passcode; and comprehensive help guides for common tasks. The app provides clear instructions and privacy-focused controls to tailor your device experience.

## Review summary

Most reviews describe the app as unusable and unreliable due to language barriers (Chinese/Korean), failure to actually lock apps (redirects to App Store instead), a heavy paywall, and widespread bugs. Compatibility issues (notably on iPad) and uninstall/refund frustrations are also common. A single positive note mentions an update, but overall sentiment is strongly negative.

### Pros

- A rare positive note: one reviewer thanked for the update.

### Cons

- Language localization issues: app is predominantly in Chinese/Korean and users report being unable to switch to English, making it unusable for non-Chinese/Korean readers.
- Does not lock apps as advertised: it creates a separate icon that prompts for a passcode and redirects to the App Store, while the original app remains accessible.
- Pay-to-use model and poor value: features require VIP or additional payments; users report paying upfront and still not getting functionality, with refund requests common.
- Reliability and usability problems: reviews describe the app as buggy, oversized/broken on devices like iPad, and generally not working as intended.
- Uninstall/refund friction: some users report the app cannot be uninstalled or canceled, with ongoing frustration over refunds.
