What is MaxLock?

MaxLock is an applocker based on the Xposed Framework. Unlike most other applockers, it uses a battery friendly and efficient event recognition method instead of a polling service.

Features:

  • NO ADS, NO BLOAT, NO SCAM! (unlike most other applockers)
  • Free software licensed under GPLv3+
  • Two implementations available: a powerful Xposed implementation and a less powerful but no-root-required no-Xposed implementation
  • Multiple locking types: Password, PIN, Knock code and Pattern
  • Android Marshmallow fingerprint support
  • Per app locking type and password
  • Fake crash feature: spoof crash of locked apps
  • MasterSwitch to disable MaxLock on the fly, along with widget, shortcut and Tasker support
  • Many UI customization options
  • Protection against being uninstalled through device admin permission (which can again be protected through Xposed*)
  • Option to disable/remove the recents thumbnails of locked apps*
  • Option to hide the notifications or their content on per-app-basis*
  • Possibility to unlock full version even without donating, but donations are still very welcome ;) (*: Only available in Xposed implementation)
