You can now secure any app on your iPhone (iOS 18 or later) with Face ID, or on Android (OS 15 or later) using your fingerprint.
Why Should You Lock an App?
- Protect sensitive data: If your phone is stolen, thieves won’t be able to access apps with private or sensitive information, like your LinkedIn profile.
- Maintain privacy: Keep certain apps hidden or inaccessible.
- Control access: Prevent kids or family members from using specific apps without your permission.
