But at least it works fine once you allow it to run in the background – just lock Huawei’s phone manager that controls permissions to run in the background and you’re fine. If you don’t allow the app to run in the background (Huawei G8, Android 6.0.1, EMUI 4.0.3), it sometimes works and sometimes it just starts up locked apps without asking for the code… Behaviour like that is dangerous for a security app. But: Without the helper app you can even use it alongside Huawei’s own phone manager app lock for locking critical apps with two different PINs or with fingerprint plus PIN! Only works fine (on Huawei G8, Android 6.0.1, EMUI 4.0 3) as long as you do not(!) install the Helper app that’s supposed to prevent it from being force stopped and you allow it to run in the background with Huawei’s phone manager! If the helper app is installed you can force stop Smart App Lock and it wont restart after a reboot or through its internal restart schedule. Here’s my experiences (especially with using Huawei’s App Lock alongside with an extra App Lock app): The only App Lock apps working on Huawei I found so far are Smart App Lock by SpSoft and Privacy Knight by Taobao. ![]() I only use Huawei phones/tablets and only some of the app lock apps work with Huawei’s phone manager, especially its “block apps from running in the background” feature.
