Arco App Lock

About this app

Arco App Lock protects any app on your phone behind a PIN, pattern, or fingerprint — with none of the ads, trackers, or "unlock with a video" tricks that most app lockers use to make money off you.

WHAT IT DOES
- Lock any app you choose, straight from a simple searchable list
- Unlock with a PIN (always available), plus optional Pattern or Fingerprint
- Forgot your PIN? Answer your own security question to reset it — no email, no phone number, no account needed
- Turn on Uninstall Protection so the app can't be removed without your PIN first
- Keeps working after you restart your phone

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT
- Zero ads — there is no ad code in this app at all
- Zero analytics or tracking — nothing about how you use your phone is recorded
- Zero internet permission — the app literally cannot send anything anywhere, even if it wanted to. You can check this yourself in your phone's app permission settings.
- Everything — your PIN, your locked app list, your security question — is stored only on your own device

PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED
- Usage Access: lets the app notice when a locked app opens, so it can show the lock screen
- Fingerprint: only used to ask your phone to confirm it's you — the app never sees your actual fingerprint
- Device Admin (optional): only if you turn on Uninstall Protection

No account. No sign-up. No internet connection required or used. Just a simple lock for your apps.

What’s new

- Fixed a real security bypass: a locked app could be opened without the PIN by backing out to Recents (Overview) and tapping back into it.
- Fixed the re-lock check after unlocking your phone screen.
- PIN entry is smoother across all screens.
