Some Android smartphones have built-in ways to let you lock apps on your mobile, but Google Pixel phones don't. So, if you own a Pixel device you might be wondering: "how can I lock apps on my mobile?".
By 'locking apps', I refer to any kind of method for stopping someone using certain apps on your phone. Maybe you're giving your device to a child and you don't want them to accidentally find a shopping app, or you want to make sure a person borrowing your phone doesn't start rooting around on your banking app. Perhaps you want to lock apps for your own benefit, to stop wasting so much time on TikTok.
