About this APK
Applock is an app by LaHaSoft in the Tools category, listed since at least December 2020. It has no native code, so it runs on any Android processor.
Since version 1.26, the APK grew from 14.5 MB to 23.2 MB and the minimum Android version rose from 4.4 to 5.0. It asks for 28 permissions, 3 of them sensitive: display over other apps, see all installed apps and package usage stats. Compared with version 1.27, it adds 7 new permissions (“Access adservices ad id”, “Access adservices attribution”, “Access adservices topics” and 4 more) and drops 3 (“Find accounts on the device”, “Read shared storage” and “Modify shared storage”).
