About App Locker

We all hand our phones to others — to show a photo, make a call, or let a child play a game. App Locker makes sure that gesture never turns into snooping. Lock any app on your phone behind a PIN: WhatsApp chats, your gallery, messages, banking apps, social media — anything you choose. Locked apps ask for the PIN every time they are opened, and the locker re-locks automatically when you leave. It is lightweight, fast, and works quietly in the background, giving you total control over who sees what on your phone.

Beyond basic locking, App Locker is designed for real-life situations Pakistani users face every day: handing the phone to a shopkeeper to show a receipt, letting children play games, or sharing the phone with family members. Because the lock screen appears instantly and the app re-locks on exit, there is no awkward moment where someone sees something private. The PIN recovery through Gmail means even if you forget your code, you are never permanently locked out — a thoughtful safety net that many locker apps simply do not offer.

Key Features

Lock Any App with PIN

Protect WhatsApp, Gallery, Messages, Facebook, banking apps — any installed app — behind your personal PIN.

Auto Re-Lock

The locker re-engages automatically when you exit a locked app, so your privacy is never left open by accident.

Lightweight & Fast

Runs quietly in the background with minimal battery and memory use — you will barely notice it is there.

PIN Recovery

Forgot your PIN? Recover access securely with your Gmail so you are never locked out of your own phone.

Intruder Alerts

Get notified if someone enters the wrong PIN, so you know if anyone tried to snoop.

Custom Lock Screen

Choose themes for the lock screen to match your style while keeping your apps guarded.

Pro Tips

💡 Lock newly installed apps immediately

Whenever you install a banking, wallet or messaging app, open App Locker first and add it to the protected list before you even log in. This way your accounts are guarded from the very first use.

💡 Use a PIN you do not use elsewhere

Pick a code that is different from your phone unlock PIN and ATM PIN. If someone watches you unlock your phone, your locked apps still stay safe.

💡 Enable intruder alerts

Turn on wrong-PIN alerts in settings. If a curious friend or a child tries to guess your code, you will know about it the next time you open the app.

How to Install

  1. Tap the Download APK button above and wait for the file to finish downloading on your Android phone.
  2. Open the downloaded file. Android will ask you to allow installing apps from unknown sources — turn this on for your browser or file manager when prompted. This is normal for apps downloaded outside the Play Store.
  3. Tap Install and wait a few seconds while App Locker installs.
  4. Tap Open to launch the app. If the app asks for permissions (storage, notifications, etc.), allow only what you need for the features you will use.
  5. To update later, download the newer version from this page and install it over the old one — your data stays safe.
