## Summary

App Lock is an iOS app that helps lock selected apps, websites, app categories, and device settings using Apple's Screen Time permission system.

App Lock is for iPhone and iPad users who want a focused app-lock workflow: selected app blocking, Face ID or passcode unlock, schedules, widgets, and Screen Time-based controls. It should not be described as an iOS bypass, hidden monitoring tool, or enterprise device management product.

## Target Users

- iPhone users who want a passcode or Face ID gate before opening selected apps
- Parents setting practical boundaries on a family iPhone or iPad
- People reducing social media and entertainment distractions
- Users who want schedules, widgets, and lock groups instead of only manual Screen Time limits

## Verified Features

- Lock selected apps with Face ID or a passcode
- Lock apps directly from Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center widgets
- Create scheduled app locks for recurring focus windows
- Select app groups, categories, and websites through Apple's Screen Time app picker
- Lock up to 50 selected apps
- View Screen Time usage insights inside the App Lock experience
- Restrict selected iOS device features such as app installation/removal and account changes where iOS allows it

## Privacy Facts

- Requires Screen Time permission before it can select and control protected apps.
- Apple controls the Screen Time permission prompt and app picker.
- App Lock does not access photos, messages, contacts, or Apple ID.
- App Lock is designed so app usage data stays on device and is not tracked for advertising.
- App Lock uses UserDefaults for local app settings.

## Limitations

- App Lock works within Apple's FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and Screen Time systems.
- It cannot bypass iOS restrictions or Apple's permission model.
- It is not an enterprise MDM product and should not be described as device management software.
- Blocking behavior depends on iOS support, permissions, and the apps/categories selected by the user.
- It does not read the private content inside other apps.
