Device Lock [BETA TESTER]

Hi Inventors :waving_hand:

I’m looking for beta testers for my Device Locker extension.

Please download and test the APK, then let me know:

  • Whether it works correctly or not
  • Your device model
  • Your Android version

Your feedback will really help improve the project :raising_hands:

Thank you! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

:package: DeviceLocker.apk.txt (3.6 MB)

:warning: please remove the .txt extension before installing.

Might help to tell us what it does, provide screenshots etc ? Most folks might be wary about installing an apk...

It allows the user to trigger device locking actions
I also tried to include a recording feature, but the recording stops automatically when the device is locked

Well it works but...
WHY IS THE BIOMETRICS JUST GOT TURNED OFF UNTIL OPENING?


When i just click the button "false" it locked my phone
but the biometrics went off until i open my phone back...

You are right, this behavior is expected and enforced by Android’s security system
the system treats it as an administrative or potentially remote lock action, For security reasons, Android temporarily disables biometric authentication (such as fingerprint or face unlock) and requires the user to unlock the device once using a secure method like a PIN, pattern, or password.
This is part of Android’s “strong authentication required” policy, which is designed to prevent unauthorized access after a forced lock. It is the same behavior that occurs after events like device reboot or multiple failed unlock attempts

There is no official API or supported method to keep biometrics enabled :sad_but_relieved_face:

Well maybe it's a great thing to use...

Thank you for trying the apk, I appreciate it.

So, i need to get your extension BECAUSE FOR USING IT PLS GIMMIE!

It’s still under development right now—I’m making sure it works reliably across all devices before releasing it. Once it’s ready, I’ll share it, but it may be a paid extension.
