App Lock vs NekoLink

Lock the apps you do not want others to open. Lockstead helps you restrict selected apps on your own iPhone or iPad using Apple Screen Time. Choose apps to block, enable protection, or set weekdays and times for restrictions. Protect access to Lockstead settings with your six-digit PIN and optional Face ID or Touch ID. VIP GUEST MODE Choose specific apps, select a duration from 15 minutes to 12 hours, and confirm the session. Lockstead applies an allowlist to supported apps through Screen Time. Try opening an allowed app and a restricted app before handing over your device. CHOOSE, APPLY, CHECK Block selected apps, set protection schedules, or temporarily allow access. Guest Mode takes priority over normal lock and temporary-access rules. When it ends, Lockstead reapplies the rules for that time; it does not simply unlock everything. iOS background scheduling can delay changes. FOR EVERYDAY HANDOFFS Let a friend use a map or lend your iPad for reading, with the apps needed for that session. Content inside allowed apps remains accessible. Guest Mode does not create a separate user account or separate app data. FREE CORE, OPTIONAL VIP Core protection for one selected app is free. VIP adds multi-app management, Guest Mode, advanced rules, app-removal controls, themes and alternate icons. Choose a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or a one-time lifetime VIP purchase. Prices are shown by your regional App Store. SETTINGS ON YOUR DEVICE Protect access to Lockstead with a six-digit PIN and optional Face ID or Touch ID. No app account, developer backend, advertising SDK or analytics SDK. Protection settings stay on your device; purchases use Apple services. Requires iOS/iPadOS 17 or later and Screen Time authorization. Availability and enforcement depend on iOS. Restrictions do not encrypt files, guarantee hidden icons or suppress notifications. This is not remote device management.
