URL Schemes

Use these links in Shortcuts, widgets, automations, or another app to open a specific Lock Launcher feature. Tap a scheme below to try it.

Before you start
  • ll:// and locklauncher:// are both supported. The shorter ll:// form is used below.
  • Opening a scheme launches Lock Launcher; it is not a background API.
  • Query parameter names such as text, id, and name are case-sensitive.
  • Percent-encode spaces and special characters in values. For example: Work%20%26%20Life.
  • Device, iOS, and Pro requirements are the same as the corresponding feature in the app. Avoid putting sensitive information in a URL.
