Thanks for reply, But there are many apps like App Lock, Fast App Lock, Smart App Lock working on same idea. In those apps you set password for any app and when you launch that app, these apps( App Lock, Fast App Lock, Smart App Lock) display password window. and after password we can view our app. If anyone knows how can I achieve same functionality.
