Why Samsung is not providing a proper Applock in-built feature in there phones..
This is a mandatory feature to secure our data from any other person..

Even though a system applock is not included they provide a native solution for this. There's an app called Samsung s secure. Download the app to lock and mask your apps.

From your postn I can see that you use a Galaxy Note series device, which means your device has Secure folder. Why don't you take advantage of that? Also please note that the reply given by my dear friend @JinuJacob, will not work in your case because S Secure doesn't work in S and Note series devices.

i know. i have secure folder option.. but i don't like that feature.. that's kind of irritating feature.. in secure folder i have to open the folder first to use the application.. that is irritating..
that's why,, Samsung can make it easier to access the app with security from applock kind of feature

purpose of secure folder and purpose of app lock is quiet different..
app lock can lock your apps and for secure folder to work you need to transfer apps and files to secure folder and everytime you want to access those files you need to unlock secure folder and then open the app. thats tedious.

secure folder is advantageous for storing very important and secret files only.
but with app lock you can lock any app and just unlock by fingerprint ir password quickly

Simple Samsung is not interested in providing the same. They have already provided a secure folder as a better tool. If you want to lock apps try Google play store. 😜
