I appreciate if there are any answers which really works!

FYI:

Thanks.

But Secure folder supports only few apps which are second instances of original apps naa? Correct me if I'm wrong!

For example, I want to lock "Phone" 📞 (system app), then how can I do it?

Please come up with any possible solution!
Thanks.

U can download the S secure app from Apkmirror
But it may not work as
I tried in my F23 5G but it didn't
So, u can't use AppLock officially
Yet, u can download the trusted applock apps from playstore or galaxy store as u prefer
Suggestion: Don't use AppLock as it is not official...
If u got the solution...please tap on the 3dot and accept this as a solution...
Thanks.

First of all thanks for your response,

As I'm using samsung for the first time - I'm not aware of "trusted applock apps",
so it will be very helpful and easy if you tell me what are those apps in more detail!

And one more thing is, I heard that - we can use this "app lock" feature by using 'Activity Launcher' app from Play store, or
- Using 'Shortcut Maker ' app.

But i don't know whether these methods are safe & secure!

Right now I'm stuck!
so I'm seeking for any help which can solve this issue,

And your help can be really useful for many like me.
I'm waiting for your response!
Thanks for your time!

Search on Google
playstore will show u top results
*Applock pro* is on the top
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ibragunduz.applockpro
I personally have used this app in 2023...it was a good experience...
But, as I didn't feel any necessity of using this (bcoz only I use my phone)...& The personal apps are secured in secure folder and I hide that app...and using double press the power key to switch between secure folder apps and main UI apps...
U can ask anything related to Samsung...here
Hope this app will resolve your issue
Thanks.

Thank you, but as I can observe the details of *Applock pro app under 'About this app' in Play store - Data is sharing with third parties naa?

What's your thoughts on this?

Thanks in advance!

Check carefully
There is mentioned that the data(your lock pin and password for this app only) is not shared actually
It is stored in the servers
It is end to end encrypted also
So don't worry...& it is safest than any other app lock app available in playstore according to many users...
Trusted & Secure ✅

S Secure doesn't exist anymore. It was replaced by that rubbish Secure Folder.
