Samsung Team,
 I really love One UI and have been a long-time Samsung user. But one very basic and important feature is still missing — App Lock.

App Lock is essential to protect personal apps like Gallery, WhatsApp, Messages, banking apps, and Notes, especially when we hand our phone to someone else. Relying on third-party app lock apps isn’t ideal, and Secure Folder doesn’t fully replace a simple app-level lock. Many other brands already offer this, and even Samsung’s China version has App Lock, so I hope it can be added to the global version too. Please consider adding a native App Lock in One UI 8.5 or One UI 9.
It would make a huge difference for users who care about privacy.

Thank you 🙏

Whats the guarantee of that ? Its all just rumours, we dont even have it in any beta or alpha testing. I aint trusting the rumours because the app lock rumour is running since one ui 7 and still nothing

But why should i? I have paid a premium price for the flagship device yet no basic features available on devices 1/10th of the price? And even if i use the third party application it wont work perfectly and i have to give it full access which is not safe.
