Having the ability to block the screen of our mobile will allow us those touches too much that they get us to close the video we are playing from YouTube, or to get into a big mess when a message arrives and we get nervous about whatever it is.
To avoid those unwelcome touches and focus on what we are doing, like that video that we reproduce from YouTube (and that could be that of the best Android games of 2020 from our channel Androidsis on the platform), we are going to show you a free app that will come in handy. Go for it.
Avoid inopportune touches with Touch Locker
Touch Locker is a fairly simple app that puts your goal is to lock your mobile screen with a simple press. As we have said, if we are watching a video on YouTube, but while we hold the mobile with one hand and do something else, we press another button on the interface, that video may stop playing with the lost experience of the moment.
The best we can do in those moments is lock the screen with Touch Locker And so the video plays while we're doing a cartwheel, frying an egg in the pan, or skiing down the Swiss Alps.
Touch Locker is characterized by your quick way to turn on or off screen lock, listen to music to save battery while we have the mobile blocked or that special moment in which our son takes the mobile and we do not want him to touch too much to stop the playback.
The truth is that moments are many in which we may need this app; Especially if in the personalized layer of our phone we do not have this option and it is present, for example, in Samsung Galaxy phones (especially in that game mode that has some advantages like this one).
How to lock your mobile screen to watch YouTube
Touch Locker can be installed on any Android mobile with 7.1 or higher, and it will ask us for these permissions to be fully functional:
- Show above: in order to lock the mobile screen
Now, when we have installed the app:
We have to go through that permit and we can go through four settings that allows us to activate the icon in the status bar in a transparent way, start a notification on restarting the phone, stop the notification when we unlock, and show a message when the screen lock changes.
The operation is very simple, since from the notification that we have persistent from the status bar, we can press it to lock the screen. At this time, only the notification bar will work from which we can unlock the screen again.
In that persistent notification we have two buttons, one to lock with the padlock closed, and another to unlock with the padlock open. We can press between the two at any time to use the exclusive function of this app that we have for free from the Play Store.
Si we want to remove advertising from Touch Locker We simply have to pay the micropayment of € 0,65 and we will avoid all those ads to have the app as a premium.
Una app that allows us to lock the mobile screen and that it can come in handy when the phone does not have this function by default; or have you tried this other app and it doesn't work for you.
