Can someone make a "Share Mode" app?

[thomasanderson]

I was reading a thread and forum member PyroSporker made reference to the fact that smartphones should have a "Share Mode" feature. Lets say before you hand your phone to someone you launch the app and hit enable. In the app settings and there's a checklist of any apps you want locked when you hand someone your phone(i.e. messages, email, gallery, etc.). And the app itself is password protected. I wonder if such an app is possible/available. I would gladly pay money for this.

I just use app locker. I put all the apps I want password protected in it and when im out of my house or have a bunch of people around I just enable the app locker. Then everything in it requires a password to access.

There are many in the market so just look through them read reviews etc see which might work for you.

I tried app locker but it was a little too buggy. It works when it wants to. But thanks for the suggestion. Hopefully I can find an app that works for me.

Which app locker did you try?

 

[thomasanderson]

Tried applocker II pro, and 2 others that I cant remember, but none of them worked consistently. Gonna try Smart app protector. It seems to have the most positive reviews. Which one do you use?

I use app lock, haven't had any issues with it on my inspire. My husband started using it too.

Thats funny because app lock was one of the other 2 apps I tried. I did find "smart app protector" and it seems to work flawlessly on my Evo 3d so far. I just hope it doesnt malfunction or something when I restart my phone. Thanks for all your help.
