Key takeaways for Locker App - Security gallery
Where is it heading?
The privacy utility market is consolidating around system-native features, which reduces the value proposition of standalone apps like Locker App. Without active development to address OS-level changes, Locker App will likely see declining utility and user retention throughout the next two quarters.

The SWOT
