Android offers several ways to protect a mobile device, but depending on each user and their environment, they may not be enough. Because of the serious fragmentation problem the operating system faces, any new security feature from Google might never arrive to certain phones or tablets. However, there is an alternative: IObit Applock delivers several additional layers of protection, including biometric lock (our face), reduced notifications, fake screens, and automatic captures of those who try to get in without permission.
Most users store a good part of their digital lives on smartphones or tablets, and the idea that they are only protected by a simple PIN or a pattern of dots and lines is very worrying. Personally, I use my smartphone very little, but if I lost the eight or ten most important phone numbers in my contacts, I would already be in serious trouble. The latent conflict between security and mobile devices holds the user hostage. Devices are supposed to be easy to use, so they were not designed with security as a priority. Apple already integrated biometric protection into its phones (the so-called Touch ID), and other manufacturers plan to do something similar, but if you want to improve the situation of your Android hardware now, you should try IObit Applock.
As the video shows, IObit Applock will keep away the little ones at home who take the smartphone for a while to play (and why not, make purchases inside games), and it will prevent notifications from certain programs from being too revealing, especially when you are in company. The latest version of Applock includes support for biometric lock with our face, which is available from Android 4.4. Applock can also restrict access to specific apps and configuration options, install a fake image that hides the lock screen, and capture the face of whoever wants to enter our phone by force, among other things.
IObit Applock has an excellent reputation on the Google Play store, and it is compatible with thirteen different languages. The free version is financed with advertising (something very common in Play Store apps), but you can pay three dollars to access the premium version and leave that behind.
