How to Lock paid apps on Android

Android Market has a wide variety of applications available for download for its users across the globe. Apart from free applications, the app store also show paid apps during every search, if unless specified otherwise.

Since today payment options using direct credit card and even through phone bills are available, purchasing applications from Android Market has become as simple as few clicks. Anyone with access to your Android smartphone can thus easily go in to the Android application store and purchase any application which might not be of any use to you. This might be done accidentally but you will have to pay the price especially with the return policy of max 30 minutes that comes with every paid application.

But there's hope; you can set up a password which can protect the market from making unwanted or unintentional/accidental purchases. This can surely save you a lot of efforts and money of course.
