I would like to request an “Lock immediately when leaving Secure Folder” option in the Auto Lock settings of Secure Folder.

Currently, the fastest option available is “When screen turns off.” This requires manually turning off the screen to lock Secure Folder, which can leave it temporarily accessible if a user switches apps or presses Home.

Adding an option that automatically locks Secure Folder the moment a user leaves the app or switches to another app would improve privacy and security, especially for users storing sensitive data.

Suggested behavior: Secure Folder locks instantly when the user presses Home, Back, or opens the app switcher.

Please restore the immediate auto lock feature. It is very critical to handle personal data.
