    Hello!

    I am hoping to find an app that allows me to lock the location of app shortcuts on my home screen. Not like a security code/privacy type lock, but so when my 3 year old son finds my phone that I've carelessly left sitting around, he doesn't accidentally move/delete my home screen layout.

    Hopefully something like this exists, and one of you find ladies or gentlemen can point me in the right direction.

    Android 8.0 Motorola E5.

    Thanks for reading, and for the forum!

    -Your friendly neighborhood Zoloft

    ocnbrze DON'T PANIC!!!!!!!!!

    yep for me that nova feature is great because in my line of work i'm always moving, crouching, leaning and i have had my phone somehow unlock itself and delete some of my apps on my homescreen. how nova's lockscreen works is that if you long press the homescreen another popup will occur saying that if you want to remove an app from the homescreen you have to long press the lock icon within the popup to be able to move or delete the app from the homescreen. never had any issues since i started using it.
