Deleting all sensitive apps of your phone is absolutely the safest option. For people who don't want to delete all sensitive apps, this is a next-best option.

Took long enough, but beta version of the app is finally ready for testing.

At long last, DuressPass beta version is ready for release! If you are interested in being a beta tester, or if you know somebody who would be interested, let us know — either send a DM, or send an email to [this account name] at gmail.

APP UPDATE: DuressPass is almost ready for beta testing! We are running final tests this weekend. If everything goes smoothly, we expect to make the app available for beta testing next week.

Working on coding an Android lockscreen app that will hide selected apps (e.g., social media, messaging, photos) when you enter an alternate PIN code. Hope that people find it useful when it's finally ready.

I'm working on an Android app that will block selected apps (such as social media) when you enter a "duress PIN" instead of your regular PIN. Still working out the bugs, but hope to have it ready soon.

I'm getting close to finishing the beta version of a lockscreen app for Android phones that will allow the user to hide certain apps (such as social media apps) by entering a "duress PIN" instead of the regular PIN. I will post information for how to download a beta version when it's available.

People should not be forced to unlock their phones and reveal private information.

I wanted a lock screen that would unlock with a regular password, but would unlock and hide certain sensitive apps if I entered a "duress password." I could not find one, so I decided to make one myself.

I have never programmed an Android app before, so it's taking a while. Check back for updates!
