I need to lock the Android phone when the user leaves a defined WiFi

  • 0
  1. I need to lock the Android phone when the user leaves a defined WiFi area
  2. I need to prevent the user from unlocking the phone when he/she is out side the defined WiFi area
  3. I need to unlock the phone when user is back to the WiFi area

I guess list items 1 and 3 can be done programmatically.

Is it possible to do the 2nd item?

    Fortunately, this is not supported, for obvious security reasons.

    You are welcome to create your own home screen that offers different behavior when inside/outside a defined area and use that in lieu of trying to prevent a phone from being unlocked. However, the user is welcome to remove that home screen by booting their device into safe mode and uninstalling your app.
