Lock Launcher is an application that promises to further explore the customization options on the iPhone lock screen. The utility creates a shortcut bar and allows you to quickly access other apps with the screen locked.
In this way, you can create a practical way to open social networks, messengers and other frequently used apps. Just press the icon and unlock the screen with password or Face ID to proceed.
The “island” of applications on the lock screen can last up to eight hours, but the count is reset after opening Lock Launcher or any other program from the icons. If you don’t like the layout, you can create individual widgets to open apps and place them below the iPhone’s clock.
