# Cordon Parental Lock A smarter way to share your phone. You know the moment. Your child asks to use your phone for a game, a video, or a few minutes of screen time. You hand it over and say, “Okay, but only use this app.” But your phone contains much more than games. Messages. Photos. Email. Social media. Work apps. Banking apps. Private conversations. Personal information. One tap can open something you never intended to share. That's why we built Cordon Parental Lock. Cordon Parental Lock gives parents a simple way to protect selected apps when sharing their phone with children. Instead of complicated monitoring tools, invasive tracking, or overwhelming parental control dashboards, Cordon focuses on one clear purpose: keeping private apps private. ## How It Works • Create protected app groups • Select the apps you want to protect • Lock them behind a master password • Unshield them only when needed • Automatically relock after inactivity or manually shield them again with one tap Whether your child is borrowing your phone for a game, watching a video during dinner, or using a shared device at home, Cordon helps create clear boundaries between what can be accessed and what should remain private. ## Designed for Real Family Moments • A child borrowing your phone in the car • A few minutes of screen time at a restaurant • Sharing your device at home • Keeping work apps separate from family use • Protecting sensitive or personal apps from accidental access ## Key Features • Protect selected app groups with a master password • Create multiple protected folders • Automatic relocking after inactivity • One-tap shield and unshield controls • Simple setup and intuitive controls • Privacy-focused design No complicated monitoring. No overwhelming dashboards. Just a simple way to protect the apps that matter. Try Cordon Parental Lock free for 7 days. Then continue with a monthly or annual subscription. Cordon Parental Lock.
