With LEO Privacy, you can now keep all your confidential information safe and keep others from opening and using your phone.

Whether you live in a home with kids who love using your phone, roommates who grab your phone often or a snoopy spouse, you need a way to keep all your information secure. This app does a great job of keeping other people from opening and using your phone as well as accessing your apps. Its locking system lets you select the files that you want to lock, including photos and videos. This helps you avoid embarrassing incidents when others scroll through your photo roll.

The password protection offered by this app works in two different ways. It can save and retain the passwords that you use for accessing different websites and keep those passwords hidden from others. When someone uses your phone, he or she cannot access your passwords. The app also lets you create a password that gives you complete and total access to your phone. No one else can use the phone without that password. It even has a fingerprint option that allows you lock your phone and only unlock it when you put your fingerprint on the screen.

While a fingerprint password will keep your phone safe from thieves, the app also has a feature designed for helping you track down your phone if someone steals it. You can actually use a remote tracker to find the location of your phone, which will come in handy when you lose it or forget it too. While some of these features are pretty nice, LEO Privacy is a little hard to use. It may take you a few days or even weeks before you feel comfortable using all the features of the app.

Though LEO Privacy is a free app, the developers make money via the ads that they run in the app. Each time you open it, you'll see a number of large banner ads as well as smaller ads around the edges. Those ads are distracting, and there is a chance that you might accidentally click one instead of clicking a feature that you wanted to use. The app comes with a number of useful features that will protect and secure your phone. To keep your information confidential and safe, you need a good security app like LEO Privacy on your Android phone.
