Hello,

Any Applications with "App lock" feature available?

Found one, but outdated : https://github.com/Maxr1998/MaxLock

If any active open source projects are there, list it here.

Thanks ,

Android work profiles will do this for you.

Set a factor to unlock your work profile and you will have to "unlock" each time you open a work app.

Look at fdroids shelter

Partially works. Thanks

Already uses Shelter. The problem with this method is, it unblocks entire Work profile ( all apps in work profile + all their notifications ). But, I wish to block selective apps in Main profile. Anyways, this method is better than installing a A Lock app with Ad$ ๐Ÿ‘

I always thought about having Multiple profiles ( work 1 , work 2 etc ) .

True. But every time your phone goes to sleep, or you turn your screen off, you have to unlock the work profile again.

I also would like multiple work profiles on a phone

if you just wanna block network access I use trackercontrol.org

the full version is on fdroid.
