About this app

Touch Lock will disable screen touch and hide buttons, while any video player is running. When you or your child watch videos, it locks touchscreen and disables touch for navigational buttons, so you stay locked inside the video streaming service.

Child lock for videos - you as a parent can block screen touch and lock keys and then your toddler can safely watch any video player without interruption.

Listen to music with screen off - cover the screen and it will really turn off, so that you can put your phone in pocket and listen to a music playlist without interruptions.

FEATURES:
✓ Locks all touch while you watch videos in any video player or video stream service.
✓ Listen to music while locked, and screen will turn off when it is covered. ("Turn Screen Off in Pocket" setting is disabled by default, so enable it from Touch Lock settings)
✓ Baby lock - run some fun baby video or toddler app to your kid and lock the phone with the invisible touch lock
✓ Automatically shows a floating lock icon over video player, so that you can easily lock touch input
✓ Unlock screen with fingerprint or pattern (not available in "Light" lock mode)

Buy Premium version - a single purchase for a lifetime license and get:
✓ Unlimited duration of Touch Lock
✓ Shake phone to lock touch and unlock
✓ Hide unlock button entirely

Ratings and reviews

I was really excited about this app but it has a long way to go. It only worked about 30% of the time- it would say the screen was locked but most definitely was not, or I'd hit the icon to lock the screen and the app it was overlying would shut down or a number of other things. When they asked me to pay I decided to uninstall, not going to pay for something that doesn't even work properly.

Limits you to 5 minutes intervals. If I'm paying for it, I'm better off paying for youtube itself. I used the app 1 hour each morning. For premium, it prompts you to sign a google contracts with terms of "no refunds" without mentioning what it actually costs to upgrade. 2 stars instead of one, because at least it's not malware like others.

1. The icon shouldn't be visible. 2. In YouTube kids mode, when the screen is reeuced, enable to enlarge as it gets locked and once unlocked, the icon goes away which require revisiting the notification so starts all the way again in manual mode. 3. Pattern does not go off if my child double press the icon of unlocking. 4. Could best serve the purpose it touch locked from notification and the child is unable to find or a small icon in a corner. 5. Too many ads.
