It’s crazy to me that apple made it that you can’t see hidden or deleted photos without Face ID or passcode but we still don’t have a simple way to lock anything else without going through processes like this
I thought the same, it should be mandatory for iphone users to be able to do so without having to have other ways that make it difficult for users to find that method
For people pointing out that the automation can just be deleted - whoever snatches your unlocked phone isn’t going to have a clue there’s a lock automation running in the background. The first app they launch they think will be of any use - Phone, Amazon, etc - basically bricks the phone as they’ll have no way to unlock it.
If I could thumbs-up this video twice, I’d do it. I’m always paranoid that someone will snatch my phone while it’s unlocked and go on an Amazon shopping spree. Problem solved!
If you don't have content to create please don't post repeated contents. I have seen this method posted of locking apps plenty of times (6 times over the year from iOS 15.4 onwards) by you. Trying to milk views by re-uploading the same content again and again and just changing the software version in the video title. "How to lock apps in XX iOS version"
@@saharacondra8445Nice idea but you would have to use the app a minute every morning to be secure right? Otherwise they have a minute which is easily enough. Haven’t found a solution though.
I tried to do it on the Photo app but when I clicked on it, it did lock the screen but when I unlocked it again, the photo app was still open so they still had access
This hack is sooo much better than the time limit one because it still allows for notifications to work. But it would be better if the process of face id was automatic to not have to swip up (like in apps that implement the face id feature). Shame on apple for not having done this already
Many people in the comments have requested what the wallpaper featuring the girl in a Picasso like style is from, could you please provide a link in the comments or description to the original wallpaper?
How to fix FACE ID NOT AVAILABLE Glitch ( i fixed it just now) (ios 17.0.1) 1. Go to Accesibility. Go to Face id and attention. Toggle of all the options and then turn it on again. 2. Now go to face id. Remove your old face id data (if setup) and try to register it again. If the Error message still appear. Do it again. If still nothing happens then do the GOLDEN STEP (3) 3. Hard reset your iphone (completely normal) by pressing volume up button and volume down button and then hold power button untill apple logo apprears. Then turn on your phone again and set up the face id (Try setup again and again). It will surely work for everyone. ❤️
The thing about this that sucks is that you can’t lock the shortcuts app your using to lock all the other apps which means all a person has to do is go in shortcuts and delete the lock on all apps which defeats the whole purpose of locking all your apps anyway it’s like buying a new lock for your car then leaving the keys taped to it 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@Jbotw23 now I know😂 but interestingly only if you are paranoid and intended to intrude others privacy so that you will check Shortcuts and delete this before going into the app you want to use! Otherwise you will get yourself locked Maybe this is the beauty of this method At the same time I don't know what's the situation that you had your iPhone unlocked to someone else you cannot trust

Exactly what came to mind, reason I sought out this video. It's ridiculous!
WHY THEY DONT HAVE APP LOCK IN SETTING JUST LIKE SAMSUNG.
THIS IS TOO COMPLICATED
Shut up mate, if you don’t like it buy a smasnug

Sorry, but can you please share the link to get this wallpaper.
Sure its obvious that lot of people ask for this wallpaper link.
Thanks.
Nice wallpaper where you get it
can you use a different passcode for this instead of your normal login passcode?

Wallpaper please!
So you just delete the shortcut automation and now the extra security is gone. So it probably works for children’s under about 7
What about to keep all your passwords safe?
Just make a note with a password and face id

"How to lock apps in XX iOS version"
Exactly
Not true this is great info
Don’t watch HIS channel then🤣
Wallpaper link bro please
How about the shortcuts app itself? Like they can delete the automation via accessing the shortcuts app
I had that too. You can put a time limit on the shortcut app for 1 minute with a passcode.
@@saharacondra8445Nice idea but you would have to use the app a minute every morning to be secure right? Otherwise they have a minute which is easily enough.
Haven’t found a solution though.
and you can not lock the "shortcut" app itself so it is pretty useless to use that method
Yeah, one swipe and the automation is gone. Apple needs to provide a native solution.
I tried to do it on the Photo app but when I clicked on it, it did lock the screen but when I unlocked it again, the photo app was still open so they still had access
Why I can’t find the Lock Screen on my shortcuts what will I do?
You need to click on 'New Blank Automation' and then press 'Add Action' and then search for Lock Screen.
Update your software in your iPhone
Try using an apple device

The only issue I've found so far is that there is no way to protect the automation
and you just disable the shortcut app and you're in... unfortunately it's easily bypassed
thx, now my mom can't snoop

It’s actually in the backdrops app
@@FlyingHiigh thank you so much mate 🤜🤛💖
Wallpaper
Thanks for this awesome video!!
This is so helpful thank you. my friends always want to get in to my photos
What’s the wallpaper?
Couldn't just someone go into Shortcuts and modify that automation?
Then lock shortcuts too
Not possible. It is not listed under apps in my case.
I cannot find the lock screen action on the latest ipad os 17..5.1
Turn phone off and on not works any longer.
Doesn’t work opening from recent apps.
this doesn’t work for me, in my shortcuts app there’s no “lock screen” option
Are you on iOS 17
THANK YOUUUU SOOO MUCHHHH YOU'RE A LIFE SAVER!!
Now my shortcut is not deleting

I'm thinking the same! Before posting my comment I saw your post.

How to lock shortcut itself?
Perhaps you could restrict access to Shortcuts using Screen Time, require passcode to use?
Thank you very Much
💪🏿❤️
subscribed because of this
THE ORIGINAL APP IS STILL SHOWN IN THE APP LIBRARY
Ya but that too is locked. No lock for shortcuts app seems to be the main issue
