Free App Lock – Privacy Knight is a free app that protects your phone and keeps all your private and confidential information safely locked away.

Do you live with friends or loved ones who like snooping through your phone? Maybe you work with a few people who don't think twice about picking up and using your phone anytime they want to use it. Even though you may not have embarrassing photos or videos on your phone, you'll still want to protect the things saved one your phone, which this app will do for you.

With Free App Lock – Privacy Knight, you have different options regarding how you lock or unlock your phone. One option is a shake, which lets you shake the phone to unlock it. You can also select your own pin code or password. One of its best features is an incoming call lock. This keeps anyone else from grabbing your phone and answering a call. It will keep them from talking to the caller unless they know how to unlock your phone.

No matter what types of apps you use on your phone, you probably receive notifications from those apps. Most phones will bring up a short text message on your screen relating to that app, which anyone nearby can see. This app gives you the chance to change those notifications and put those notifications under a private lock. This keeps the alerts from coming across your phone and lets you view those notifications when you open and unlock your phone later. You can even select which apps you want to hide. This app can do the same thing for text messages and private messages too.

Free App Lock – Privacy Knight has a pattern lock option too that lets you choose a pattern that you like and draw that pattern on the screen. Unless someone knows the exact pattern that you choose, the app will keep others from using the phone. Another great feature is that the app can create its own icon that looks like a phone icon, which keeps others from even knowing that you have it on your phone. Free App Lock – Privacy Knight offers the ultimate in protection from snoopers and prying eyes.
