It makes my phone look like a track phone, plus it's really laggy!!! Although I wish my birthday would hurry up and come on so I can get another phone!!! Anyway!!! This is an extra lock it takes like 15 swipes just to unlock it!!! I hate it!!! And plus updating this dumb app is making my play store go even slower because it's already slow enough!!!

If I could I would give this app zero Stars this app was already downloaded on my tablet when I got it and it made my tablet super laggy so it's best to not get this app or just uninstalling it right away when you get a new device and this is already on cuz this app does not help at all and makes the device super laggy and it's basically just a second lock screen anyways that is all. Update: it won't stop reinstalling by itself!

The app developer overstepped with this app I'm a senior tech advisor and I can say for a fact this developer wants way too much access for one by being a pre-installed app to where even when you disable it it's almost impossible to stop them from accessing your data so the only way is to reconfigure the entire device and thank God it is an Android because it can be done by simple Google search as long as you own the device you just need to get it unbricked that way it does not belong to anyone
