Accessibility Service disclosure

AppLock's Website Blocker feature uses Android's Accessibility Service to block the websites you choose. When you turn on Website Blocker and grant the permission, the service reads only the web address (URL) shown in your browser's address bar in supported browsers (Google Chrome and Samsung Internet) to detect when you open a site or category you've chosen to block, and then shows a block screen instead of the page.

• It is used only for the Website Blocker feature, and only after you enable it and grant the permission.
• It reads only the address bar (the site's web address). It does not read page content, capture what you type, read your passwords, or record your screen.
• Android does not offer another way for an app to detect the page a browser is showing, so this permission is required for the feature to work.
• You can turn Website Blocker off at any time in the app, or revoke the permission at any time in Android Settings > Accessibility, which stops the service completely.
Secure your apps with lock screens, use custom themes and different features.

so far so good! Considering it's free the app works well and provides a lot of customisation. One thing I've found that doesn't work at all is the fake crash message you can use on certain apps, it displays the message but it doesn't clear, so I've turned that function off now. But overall happy with it. I wish there was a free trial of the premium so I could try before I buy though!

Don't buy this app, it's not worth it. I disable it when at home and enable it when I go out. 50% of the time I can still open apps with it enabled when I'm out and about (all my apps are set to be locked when enabled). I always make sure it's set to enabled and apps still open. I really don't have any confidence with this, and I feel well and truly ripped off. Considering I paid £50 for it when my anti virus costs a lot less and covers multiple devices, it truly is not worth the money.

Great app, but the Royal Match Ad keeps on popping up like a Virus on the free version and there is no way to close the ad. Everytime this ad come up I have to restart my phone as it prevents me to switch to any of my app or to close the app. Please look into this, or i ll have to report it as a virus onto the app store!!! Not impressed at all!!
