If iPhone security is a concern, don't miss this convenient way to lock select iPhone apps so that only you can access them.
With all the private and sensitive information we store on our phones, having someone poke around on your device can be a nerve-wracking experience. For example, if you hand your phone to a co-worker to show him a video, the last thing you want is for him to get nosy and fire up your banking app or Tinder. If this is an iPhone security issue you worry about, there is actually a way to lock any iPhone app so that no one else can get in.
We should note that the solution below is something of a workaround. Regardless, it’s worth being aware of if you’re extremely concerned about prying eyes accessing sensitive information on your iPhone.This iPhone security tip is a bit more involved than most, but it works nonetheless. The bedrock of this particular tip is Screen Time. AppleScreen Time with iOS 12.
Once you do that, you can set a new passcode specifically for Screen Time limits. Upon doing that, go back to the main settings pane and select the App Limits option. As a quick aside, it’s a general rule of iPhone security that a passcode you choose should be hard to guess for others but easy for you to remember.
Once there, you can choose which apps you’d like to restrict. Upon choosing an app, you can now add a time limit for that app. And since you’re trying to keep prying eyes away, make sure to keep the time limit to something short, like one minute. Remember, you can bypass the restriction with the passcode.Other ways to keep private information safe
