Feature Request : temporary phone lock upon phone restart #21

Hello. Firstly, thank you for this app, it's great.

Here is my suggestion : I already use an app that lets me lock other apps with very good customization and tampering protection. However these protection are weakened when I turn the phone off and on again, because the app takes some time to "wake up" I guess (even though I followed the dontkillmyapp advice). Using your app, I have noticed it is not the case for "Lock my phone". When restarting the phone, the lock is still very reactive. It is cool because it prevents me from using the restart of my phone as a way to uninstall the other lock app. However the app only locks the phone at restart if we are already in a configured lock period. So outside of those lock periods, I can still use restart phone as a way to mitigate protections.

That is why, if feasible, a setting to enable an automatic lock of the phone upon restart even outside of lock periods, during a configurable time period (like, at each restart, your phone is locked during 10 minutes for example) , would be super useful. It would leave enough time for the other apps to wake up and retrieve their efficient protections.

Have a good day :)
