Can't try it right now, i'll test it later, but i wonder if there is a "fake force close" fonction?
I like it because when someone want to launch a "suspicious" app, it tells them that it's broken, i find that less suspicious than having a password protected app... (Your gf will always ask you what's the password lol).

Other than that, this app seems pretty neat :)

I just tried the last beta, and when hitting return button at password screen, gets back to homepage, and if you force close launcher (on CM7 there's an option for that, by keeping return button pushed), then it will get you to the protected app.
But i think there's no way to avoid this, probably an android limitation ?

The big problem with apps protection is that all those i've tested don't kill the launched app if you don't enter the good password, it just relaunch the launcher (you can see it if you have more than one available, it will ask you to pick up your launcher), it could result in big battery drain if you protect for example a game, am i wrong ?

Anyway, your app is pretty good :)

Currently this app is just like every other app-locker.
What would make this unique is if we could set different passwords for some apps.
So, to access Phone the password could be 1234 but to access Messages it could be 4585.
I'm sure you get the idea.

Right now I can do this with Tasker, but it'd be nice to have an app that does this without long setups
