About Profile Locker
Take back control of your phone — and your kids' phones — with Profile Locker. Create smart profiles for every part of your day. Switch between them instantly. Block everything else.
No root. No ADB. No Device Admin. Just install and go.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔒 PROFILE TYPES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
👶 KIDS PROFILE
Block everything except the apps you approve. Set a daily screen time limit. Enable Strict Kiosk Mode to lock the device to a single app — perfect for letting kids watch one video without wandering into YouTube rabbit holes.
💼 WORK PROFILE
Block social media, games, and distractions during work hours. Keep only the apps you actually need. Stay focused without willpower.
📚 STUDY MODE
Deep focus lock. Phone and study apps only — no notifications, no distractions. The phone stays locked until your study timer runs out. Cannot be bypassed without the master PIN.
✨ PERSONAL PROFILE
Your balanced everyday setup. All your favourite apps, none of the guilt.
📞 BASIC PHONE
Calls, messages, and contacts only. The ultimate digital detox profile.
🎛️ CUSTOM PROFILE
Build your own rules from scratch. Full control, your way.

⚡ HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Profile Locker runs a lightweight background service that monitors which app is in the foreground. The moment a blocked app opens, a lock overlay appears instantly — no delay, no workaround.
Switch profiles from the notification bar or Quick Settings tile without even opening the app. Each profile switch requires a PIN, so kids can't switch to Personal mode when you're not looking.

🌱 PRIVACY FIRST
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Profile Locker collects zero personal data. Everything stays on your device. No account required. No internet permission. No analytics, no ads, no tracking — ever.
Your PIN is hashed with PBKDF2-SHA256 (310,000 iterations). Your profiles never leave your phone. Backups are explicitly disabled to keep your security settings safe.
