Works for HCL Traveler Companion whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.
Touch and hold HCL Traveler Companion's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts HCL Traveler Companion behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode; choose Hide and Require Face ID instead to move it into App Library's Hidden folder as well.
Lock HCL Traveler Companion with Face ID
- Find HCL Traveler Companion on your Home Screen or in App Library.
- Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
- Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
- Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. HCL Traveler Companion now asks for authentication every time it opens.
To test it, close HCL Traveler Companion from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.
Hide HCL Traveler Companion in App Library
- Touch and hold HCL Traveler Companion's icon and tap Require Face ID.
- Choose Hide and Require Face ID instead of Require Face ID.
- Confirm. The icon leaves your Home Screen and moves to the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library.
- To open it later, swipe to App Library, tap Hidden and authenticate.
Hiding also locks the app. To undo either, touch and hold the icon again and choose Don't Require Face ID.
Why lock HCL Traveler Companion?
HCL Traveler Companion is a secure email app, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. Email apps see every message and contact. Third-party mail clients may route mail through their own servers to offer features like push or AI summaries.
Business apps often handle other people's data — clients, colleagues and customers — so what they collect can affect more than you.
A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what HCL Traveler Companion sends to its developer; for that, see HCL Traveler Companion's full privacy report.
