PIN when a locked app opens
A cover appears first. Then enter your PIN. Fingerprint or face unlock is optional.
Android app lock
Lock apps. Keep them private.
XLockSpace asks for a 6-digit PIN when you open a locked app. You can hide selected apps from the home screen by setting XLockSpace as the default Home.
What it does
Hide from Home when you choose
Set XLockSpace as the default Home. Hidden apps leave the desktop and stay locked.
Delayed relock
An unlocked app can stay open until the screen turns off. Unlock-one-unlocks-all is optional.
Custom Quick Settings tile
Change the tile icon, title, and text. That is how you open XLockSpace from the shade.
How to start
1
Set a 6-digit PIN
Remember it. If you forget, you must clear app data. The lock and hide lists are lost.
2
Grant usage access and overlay
Usage access sees which app opened. Display over other apps covers it immediately. Add a battery whitelist so the lock keeps running.
3
Lock, then hide if you want
Add apps on App lock. To hide icons, add them on Hide, set XLockSpace as default Home, and tap Always.
Inside the app
What it cannot do
- It cannot hide apps from Settings → Apps, Play Store, or package managers.
- Icons stay on the system launcher unless XLockSpace is the default Home.
- It cannot prevent uninstall.
- It does not replace OEM Recents, widgets, or gestures. Some HyperOS and HarmonyOS builds refuse a third-party default Home. App lock still works there.
Languages
English is the default. Follow system uses the phone language.

Questions
I forgot my PIN.
Clear XLockSpace app data in system settings. There is no remote reset. Your lock and hide lists are deleted with the PIN.
Will hidden apps disappear from Settings?
No. Hidden apps still appear in Settings → Apps and in stores. Hide only removes them from the XLockSpace home screen.
Does it read my other apps?
Usage access is used only to see which app came to the foreground. Optional notification access dismisses hidden-app notifications by package name. Content is not read.
Is there an account or cloud backup?
No account, no ads, no analytics SDK. Cloud backup is off. Your PIN is stored as a one-way hash on the device.
