Android 11<\/a> users can pin and unpin an app on their phones to limit the user’s access. It prevents whoever is using your phone from opening anything else on your device until you have unpinned the app. It’s also very secure as your phone will need your password to grant full access to the phone once the app has been unpinned. Here’s how to pin and unpin an Android app.<\/p>\n
