App lock issues - switched lock/unlock icons
I've been noticing some rather strange behavior and would love to gain some insight...I've been using the armor app for several months on my Samsung android phone, as I've suspected some security issues. In any case after setting up the app lock function, the function seems to work fine for a variable amount of time, later supposedly locked apps no longer require biometric authorization.
In addition, I've noticed within the app the icons are flipped for lock/unlock settings, which seems odd..I don't believe that we're this way upon installation. Shown in Pic attached. TIA!!

Is that seen with in the Armor feature app in Orbi or Nighthawk app or is this in the Android OS window app?
What NG router model do you have?
What model Samsung phone do you have?
What OS version is loaded on the phone?
- Infinite383AspirantOkay, sure.
-This is on the Armor app, version #16.0.0.
-Andriod A35, UI 6.1, Android 14
-Did have a Nighthawk router, though no longer used. I would assume the app does not require a NetGear router to function-?

Okay, if you don't have a NH Router, then Armor will not work. It's only intended and requred for NG Nighthawk or Orbi router systems.
