【Example of Use】Example 1: All other applications are locked from 22:00 at night (bed time) till 7:00 following morning.Example 2: All other applications are locked from 9:00 in the morning (school time) till 17:00 in the evening.
【How to Use】1. Install the TIMER LOCK application.2. Set “Lock start” and “Unlock” times.3. Set a password with 4 digits and a secret question. Make a record of them so as not to forget.4. Press “Set” to start operation. The smart phone remains locked for a specified period of time every day.5. The smart phone display is covered with a screen while it is being locked and operation is disabled. However, incoming and outgoing calls only are possible at this time.
【Background】Recent children start using a smart phone in junior or senior high schools, which is earlier than before. As a result of chronic use all day and night, they tend to become smart phone addicts. This could also affect their physical conditions adversely and examples where a healthy life is not ensured have been reported increasingly. In order to improve such situations, the TIMER LOCK application aims to be used by parents to impose restrictions on children’s smart phones in advance to become enabled only for a preset time for sound use.
【Notes】As for compatible models, not all models have been confirmed versatile terminal models are available in the market. Uninstalling the TIMER LOCK application forcibly could disable the expected functions. Please note that this application is compatible with Android.We receive more and more inquiries about actions in case the password number or secret question slips out of memory. Please understand that inquiries from children cannot be answered because this application aims to place children’s smart phones under the control of their parents. Use the application only after thoroughly reading the terms of service displayed on the screen after the software is downloaded and confirming the consent.
【Information】TIMER LOCK 2 (paid-for edition) is optionally available, which allows setting of three types of times, setting of days of the week and setting of a 6-digit password number.

Kept crashing upon trying to change times, if this were fixed i might give a new rating
I like this app very much is very good for me. It allows me to set time for my friends who want to use my phone for game and other things. Thanks to the developer but improve it to set a specific app at a time
I intended to use this app to keep myself from using my phone during work hours. Unfortunately, it requires you to enter a password to lock and unlock the phone meaning you can unlock it at any time of you know the password.
I can't uninstall this app. Hate it
Cant uninstall; constantly crashes
Terrible hate it 😣
Works excellent to make me go to bed on time.The user first sets a password that will allow only them to modify the app's settings. Then just set a start and a stop time for the lock period. The app will auto-run between whatever start time and stop time you set, during which time only the user with the password can get past the app. It is intended to be installed on someone else's device to keep them from using it within a certain period of the day; I used it on myself (blindly typed a random password)
I wish it was recurrent and that I could choose on what day to put it If I have to set it up myself everyday it's not gonna work..
BT its lagging in my mobile so that I can unlock without knw ing the password
I just hate it really bad
Apps can be accessed through recents after selecting 'Make a Call'
When you tap "unlock", it asks for the password. When you select "cancel", you will get a time gap to open time and date settings from notification bar. Use the time to change the time on the phone and unlock it!
Atleast we should use basic functions of phone with this on like alarm, phonecalls...really poor app...of no use...
best app keep me focused during exams
This app is ruining my life
It will automatically unlocked after the screen lock.....
i cant seem to deactivate the app tp uninstall.........
Great concept and great qestionnaire after istallation- however the app crashes often and thus unlocks the screen ! Intention is good, but the app needs to be robust
Works as advertised. Simple to use in English. I set the time I allow the kids to use the pad. What will be great is there is a timer for autolock after a fixed time
Make it with different language settings. It's an outstanding idea for an ap, but I'm not about to try putting my devices on lockdown in a language I can't read to disengage it.
Great idea in the making. Would like to try it, but will only do so when the app is in english. Will update my rating when it is available :)
There's no point to this app. By pressing "make a call" option and then the back button you can use the phone.
All u have to do is say mack a phone call and then go back to the home screen it dosen't relock automatically not good
I really need this thing! Lol
Really easy to unlock
Very useful, because I've tried others, but the problem is that if I turn the phone off and turn it on again the app can be unistalled a few seconds before the device is newly locked, I could do this if I really want to use my phone, however, with this app, the previous this I mentioned does not happen which FORCES ME not to use it until the time is up, even when turned off or with battery removed. IMPORTANT: SET A RANDOM PASSWORD WITHOUT SEEING AND THEN CLEAR DATA IN APP MANAGEMENT AFTER LOCKING TIME.
