This is how you can block an app on iPhone so that no one but you can use it
Today we are going to teach you how to create a password to lock an app on the iPhone. A good way to prevent someone who takes your device from using certain apps without your permission. Another of our iOS tutorials that will come in handy for you.
Surely more than once you have left your iPhone to certain people and you have feared that they would use applications that you do not want them to open. That is why Apple gives us the possibility to create a code so that only we can use those applications.
Actually, this is a trick we've discovered that takes advantage of the Screen Time features of iOS.
How to lock an app with code:
In the following video we explain how to do this tutorial. If you like to read more, we explain it in writing below.

The first thing we must do is know exactly which app we are going to block. Once we know what it is, we go to the device settings and click on the "Usage time" option.
If you have not configured a lock code for this function, create it first by clicking on the option “Use code for “Airtime”.
Once in the menu of that function, we will see that a graph appears with all the usage data of our device. If we look closely, an option called “See all activity” appears, which is where we have to click.
Click on the option “See all activity”
Now we will see that a new graph appears and below the applications that we have used on the device. What we must do now is look for that app that we want to block.
When we have found it, click on it and we will see that a graph appears about this app, information about it and at the bottom "Add limit" .
Add the 1 minute limit to perform the trick
Click on this tab and the limit that we must add is 1 min By creating this limit, what we achieve is that the device asks us for the password as soon as we enter the app . Therefore, when clicking on the app, it will ask us directly for a code to enter.
This way, only we, who know the code, will be able to use this app without any problem.
