How to resolve App Lock vulnerability upon restart?

[greenjaden]

All App Lock apps I've used on my Moto G4 on Android 7.1.1 have a vulnerability. When I restart the phone, it takes about 30 seconds for the App Lock to start running and protect my applications. That leaves 30 seconds every restart where my protected apps and files are vulnerable. Does anyone have a solution to this? I am using AppLock Master 19.1.0, but I've tried other app lock apps that have this same issue. Thanks.

If you have the lock screen enabled, there's no way to get into the apps without unlocking the phone. While you may be able to do that in a couple of seconds, someone who doesn't know your PIN or password won't be able to get into it that quickly.

I thought of that, but I want to keep my phone unlocked in case I lose it and want to call my phone to retrieve it. So I just want to lock certain apps but leave the phone unlocked.
