Added Password Protection and biometric authentication by Encrypted Shared Preferences and biometrics in android

Related Issue

Closes: #115

Description

Implemented the password protection feature using encrypted shared preferences. This ensures that sensitive user data is securely stored in an offline mode and accessed only through proper authentication. Added logic to enable and disable password protection, and updated the settings screen to reflect the current state of the password protection feature.

This is awesome! Thank you very much for your input, @anuragkanojiya1. 👍

Would it be possible to use biometrics instead of a password too?

May you please make the new strings translateable (android/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml )?

Can you please have a look too, @mubeen1519? What do you think?

[mubeen1519]

sure will look into it but biometric feature are good approach for this app and convinent for user

[mubeen1519]

actually its looks not too good to use password and this design also if biometric option is available we dont need to do this stuff only prompt show at start for biometric and user dont need to write and remember the password

[anuragkanojiya1]

Okay, I will try to make a PR regarding biometric authentication soon.

[CrazyMarvin]

I think both options would be great. So the users can decide if they go without extra protection, password or biometrics.

Thanks for giving a helping hand, @mubeen1519! ❤️

Okay @CrazyMarvin

@CrazyMarvin I have implemented biometric auth and tested it on my physical device, it is working fine, you should check it out too.

May you share a debug APK please, @anuragkanojiya1? May you please review the code, @mubeen1519?

I just merged your PR.

The UX needs a bit fine-tuning. Are you interested to do that next week?

Thanks!

The designer updated the mockup. Are you able to create a new PR that reflects it, @anuragkanojiya1?
