Apps Lock & Gallery Hider acts like a lock to keep all the images in your gallery as well as your favorite apps private.

It only takes one embarrassing incident before you realize that you need a lock system on your phone. If you're like most people, you probably have one or more sexy photos of you, your partner or the two of you together. When a friend looks through your gallery to find a photo you want to share, that person might stumble across one of those private pictures. Apps Lock & Gallery Hider gives you the chance to lock down your gallery and lock your apps too.

You get the chance to pick the type of password you want to set up the first time that you use this app. A pin code is best for those who want something basic and those who can remember a short series of numbers. The pattern lock option allows you to draw a pattern that will then serve as your password. With the voice password, the app will remember the sound of your own voice and a specific keyword or phrase that you speak. It also has a double password option that lets you set up two different types of passwords and a password recovery option for resetting a forgotten password.

When you turn on the app protection, Apps Lock & Gallery Hider will lock all apps in a central folder. While this can make it hard to find the exact app that you want, you can use a slider bar inside the app to unlock your apps. This will let you access each one from your home screen or settings menu. The home page of the app itself shows you tiles or buttons that you can click to view your protected apps, access your gallery or view the advanced settings.

Those advanced settings give you access to your phone's settings menu and helps you do other things. Its task manager helps you bring certain apps or programs to a forced stop, and its uninstall area lets you remove other apps from your phone and uninstall this app. Apps Lock & Gallery Hider has an easy to use and simple interface that makes it a good security app for those who want to hire adds and photographs on their phones.
