WeLock app icon
Native privacy for macOS

Lock what matters.

Protect selected Mac apps with Touch ID or your Mac login password — without putting a global blocker over everything else.

Private by design.

WeLock stays focused on one job: keeping the apps you choose protected while the rest of your Mac stays usable.

◉

Touch ID protection

Authenticate with Touch ID where available, with your Mac login password as a fallback.

▣

Per-app locking

Protection follows the selected application instead of covering whichever app happens to be on screen.

↻

Automatic re-lock

Configure WeLock to lock protected apps again when focus changes, the Mac sleeps, or the session locks.

Built to feel at home on Mac.

A native SwiftUI interface, menu-bar controls, launch-at-login support and configurable security behaviour — without turning app protection into a distraction.
