Samsung released the Good Lock application a few years back however the company failed to update the application with any new features and had disregarded the application until last year where we saw the Good Lock application makes its comeback on for Samsung devices running Android Oreo.

Unfortunately, the Good Lock app was rendered unusable after the Android 9 Pie update and rather than disregarding the app once again, the South Korean Giant has brought back the application with support for all Samsung devices running the Android Pie update.

The update brings back all the great features found on Good Lock 2018 and also adds a few more features and options to play around with. So without much further ado, let’s check out how to install the Good Lock 2019 application on your Samsung device running One UI on top of Android 9 Pie.
