Is there a version of Vsmart App Locker for older Android phones?

The current version needs Android 12 or later. Version 1.0.31 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 8.0 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 1.0.31 · All versions
