I know this aint XDA bois, but at least hear me out.
i have an Applock idea, and XDA wont be able to answer this from a wide scale consumer standpoint.
Target market is parents who allow their young child to play on phones unattended
The idea is that the application will allow parents to set timed locks
>Choose day/s to lock app/s
>Choose time of the day to have the app/s unlocked
>During time of app locking, the parent may have the option of entering a passcode, or set it to be inaccessible until the next scheduled unlock period
>When the unlock timeframe is exceeded, the parent may then set the applock to either terminate the app(which may cause data loss), or set a grace period with warning audio/notification before app terminates
>They may also launch an app from inside the applock, in which they will set a time limit for the app
Here are my 3 questions:
>Is it practical from a parent's standpoint?
>Will it profit if monetized?
>Is there already an existing app that offers those kinds of security measures?
Nice idea OP but microsoft already does this. U can make an app but it will br hard to monetize with ads, u can have a monthly subscription plan but then u'll have to add more features to the app and will have to maintain an online server too...Good luck.

i do like to know what that MS app is.
as for monetization, i was thinking of one-time charge. I have to admit, maintenance and upgrading is a bitch, but there will come a time when the app will have reached its full potential function-wise, thus making it redundant to add unnecessary features. the only long term maintenance is compatibility for future android versions

Ms doesnt have an app but a service for all windows users with the same functionality u want.
As for paid app, people usually buy paid apps OP, but if u think paid is better u should allow it though in-app purchase from a lite version of the app.
