Top 3 Best App Lock Apps for Android Phones

When we talk about the most famous operating system for Smartphones, Android pops up in the mind. With hundreds of unique features, this OS has become default choice of the main phone manufacturers.

Even with all its features, the security aspect of Android is quite weak when compared to other operating systems like iOS of Apple. Given that there are many security and privacy options which come with Android, it lacks essential advanced features.
When it comes to privacy, users are quite specific and demanding. Looking at this situation, many developers have come with the variety of apps for apps’ security and privacy of the user.
Whether it is about the privacy of text messages, documents and images of the users or unwanted access by wrong people, these apps provide much-needed relief to the users. Mentioned below is our list of top 3 App Lock Apps for Android smartphones.
1. App Lock
With total user count over 100 million, App Lock is by far the most installed app locker currently available. Its popularity can be quantified by the fact that it comes with the support over 24 languages.
AppLock
You can lock SMS, Gallery, Gmail, Security and Calls app along with other installed apps.  It comes with a feature to hide images and videos. By setting passcode lock and recovery email after installing this app, you have simplified security service for your apps.

2. Smart App Lock
Among the most advanced app locker, Smart App Lock comes with a variety of advanced features. The user can lock any app via PIN/Passwords or any pattern.
Smart AppLock
The most impressive feature of this app locker is that it takes an image of the person who tries to unlock your phone (given that he/she has made multiple failed attempts) and sends them to your registered email address.
Another brilliant feature is its fake Forced Closeup Popups in place of lock screen which makes the other user think that the app has crashed rather than an impression that app is locked.
Developed by SpSoft, it works on Android 4.0.3 and up. You can download it from Google Play Store.
3. Apps Locker Master
With its impressive and easy-to-use interface, Apps Locker Master is another great app which we recommend as password protection is very simple in comparison with other app lockers. With a variety of advanced features, this app locker provides the ability to lock any third-party app or system apps.

New initatives unveiled by IBM for Indian developers

IBM on Friday launched new global programmes and tools in India to boost developers’ skills around Cloud and emerging technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT). “The world will be re-written in code and much of it will be done right here in India,” said Vanitha Narayanan, Managing Director of IBM India, in a statement. “IBM’s leading capabilities in Watson, IoT, Cloud, mobile and blockchain will help developers innovate and succeed. At IBM, we are committed to investing in this ecosystem and will continue to collaborate with developers for a progressive India,” Narayanan added.

The announcement was made at “IBM DeveloperConnect” event here to more than 10,000 developers across India who attended in person or virtually via streaming service Livestream. The initiatives include collaborations with educational technology company Coursera and web-based repository hosting service GitHub which aim to reach millions of developers globally. “The collaboration with Coursera will strengthen developers’ skills in India with new courses focused on cloud and IoT,” IBM said.

IBM also debuted two new capabilities to advance Swift on IBM Cloud. The beta version of IBM Cloud Tools for Swift free app will provide a single, visual interface for developers to assemble, manage, deploy and monitor apps. Swift on LinuxONE, IBM’s Linux-only enterprise system, will help create applications that connect into the hybrid cloud. By running Swift on LinuxONE, developers can combine the programming language they know with the system’s speed, security and scale.

The news comes on the heels of initiatives and investments IBM has already made in India, including the IBM Cloud data centre in Chennai which was opened last year. IBM has also launched three digital hubs with IT industry trade body Nasscom to connect Indian developers and startups with local resources and networking opportunities.
