Take control of your digital life with BlockApps.

BlockApps is a privacy-focused app locker designed to help you secure sensitive apps, manage screen habits, and protect access to important settings—all while keeping your data entirely on your device.

**Key Features**

**App Lock with PIN or Biometrics**
Secure any app using a 4-digit PIN or system-provided biometric authentication (fingerprint or face).

**Protection Against Unauthorized Changes**
BlockApps helps prevent accidental or unauthorized attempts to uninstall or force-stop the app by showing a security screen when such actions are detected in system settings.

**Smart Scheduling & Focus Mode**
Automatically lock selected apps during work hours, study time, or bedtime using customizable schedules.

**Secure Overlay Lock Screen**
A system-compatible lock screen appears over protected apps until authentication is completed.

**Privacy-First Design**
BlockApps works entirely offline. We do not collect, store, or share personal data, app usage information, or browsing activity.

**Accessibility Service Disclosure**

BlockApps uses the AccessibilityService API to enable core app-locking and protection features.
