| Dec 21, 2015 at 2:09 | comment | added | Shoeless | Ah, the pinning of the app was exactly what I was looking for. If you'll post your response I'll mark it as the answer. Thanks for the help! | |

Here is Play Store link for free version: play.google.com/store/apps/… and all it needs is a framework which can be installed just like any app. Download the APK here: repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer | |

I am not familiar with the "pin an app" feature so I will look into it- may be exactly what I need. ProtectedApps is an option too, but it needs an additional framework and some config and a donation. I'm of the mind that simpler is better, so will hope the pinned app solution does the trick! | |
| Dec 19, 2015 at 9:38 | comment | added | Firelord♦ | Which device is it? Can it be upgraded to any Lollipop version, because Lollipop can screen pin an app i.e. you would only be able to use a particular app nothing else? Otherwise, see if ProtectedApps helps. Run it on all the apps except AlarmClock and whenever other apps would be activated a lockscreen would show up, be it custom or native. // You can also use any "app locker" app from Play Store. // You can also use an automation app to lock the screen whenever any app other than clock gets active on screen. | |
