Cisdem AppCrypt for Windows has been updated to version 3.5.0, which improves the website blocking feature.
Cisdem AppCrypt for Windows allows users to block websites and lock apps with a password, helping users block distracting and inappropriate websites and password protect apps. It’s compatible with Windows 7 or later, 64-bit required.
“AppCrypt allows users to block specific websites and certain website categories,” said Edward Riley, Cisdem’s project manager. “Users can also block websites by keyword. AppCrypt blocks all URLs containing any individual keyword a user added to the block list. With this update, AppCrypt now supports combinations of keywords, which allows more flexibility. This update also makes some refinements to improve the website blocking feature. ”
Lock apps with password
This app locker for Windows 10 and Windows 11 can lock individual apps on a Windows PC with the password set by the user. To unlock an app, one needs to enter the password.
It’s easy to add apps to lock. Users can do it by dragging the desktop shortcut or EXE file of an app into AppCrypt’s App Lock tab.
Automatically relock apps after a period of inactivity
This app locker for Windows has an Auto Lock feature. If enabled, this feature will automatically lock unlocked apps after they are inactive for the period of time set by users, for example, 1 minute.
Record failed attempts to open locked apps
If one tries to access a locked app and enters a wrong password, the app will remain locked. In addition, AppCrypt will record the failed attempt, with app name, date and time.
Block websites and pages
As a website blocker for Windows, AppCrypt allows users to block specific websites and pages on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera and Brave. Also, with a simple click, users can add all popular websites of a certain category (like social media) to block. In addition, it can block all URLs that contain any of the user-specified words.
Block all websites except a few
This website blocker can also block all websites except user-specified ones. To do so, enable the Block all websites option and add specific websites.
Lock apps and block websites permanently or at scheduled times
By default, a locked app or blocked website will remain locked or blocked all the time. But there is flexibility thanks to the Custom Schedule feature and the General Schedule feature.
To lock/block a certain app/website only during certain periods, turn on Custom Schedule for it, add a schedule and set the times. Multiple schedules are allowed. The general schedules apply to all the locked/blocked apps/websites that don’t have a custom schedule.
Set up AppCrypt on multiple PCs with a click
Users can import or export AppCrypt configuration with a single click, making it easy and quick to set up AppCrypt on multiple machines.
