Hi all, any body have idea about app lock in samsung mobiles or work around? I do have secure folder but as you know it will clone apps and wont mask the apps.its good but we dont want to clone every app. Tried some 3rd party app locks ( norton , applock etc) but as they r 3rd party apps and they r not upto the mark and they do share personal data for adds etc.

Also if possible please write mails or share a feed back to them so that at least in next release they might consider it. Usually if many people throng them with emails as a feed back they will b complled to look at it.

See this post. This will work in your m53 and other secure folder devices.

Yes bro, but secure folder clones u r app. Like another copy . It wont work like app lock 😒. Anyway thx for the info.

You can do one thing.
See, in the secure Folder press hold that clone app and you will get options saying to pin it in the Home screen... click on it, then one shortcut will be created on your home screen. When u try to open the clone app from home screen using the shortcut, it is ask u for Pint/Pattern/Password/Fingerprint.

NOTE: the clone app and the app which you install within secure Folder remains different. For Eg: if you have the app normally, if you Uninstall the app, then this will not uninstall the clone app which you downloaded from Secure Folder, so you can have only one app which will be secured.
There is an identification for the clone app (downloaded from Secure folder), it will have the symbol on it like a lock symbol, on the left-bottom of the app logo..

Yeah..for now seems thats the only option we have. And FyI. We cant add samsung native sms tex messaging app to secure folder. ( already wrote this for samsung team, they told..they will take it as a feedback andnif possible will add it in future enhancements. Havig saod that for now i will do as u said .
