On LineageOS how to enable *App pinning* with `adb`?
Jan 25, 1:42am

To enable App pinning on LineageOS using ADB, you need to set the appropriate system setting via an ADB command. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Enable Developer Options and USB Debugging

    • Go to Settings > About phone and tap on Build number seven times to enable Developer options.
    • Go back to Settings > System > Developer options and enable USB debugging.
  2. Connect your device to your computer via USB and authorize ADB access when prompted on your device.

  3. Open a command prompt or terminal on your computer and run the following ADB command to enable App pinning:

    bash
    adb shell settings put secure lock_to_app_enabled 1

This command sets the system setting that controls App pinning. After running it, you should be able to pin apps by opening the recent apps overview, swiping up on the app you want to pin, and tapping the pin icon.

If you want to disable App pinning later, you can use:

bash
adb shell settings put secure lock_to_app_enabled 0

Note: App pinning behavior may vary slightly depending on your LineageOS version and device. If you encounter issues, ensure your ADB connection is stable and your device is properly authorized for debugging.

Would you like help with any other ADB commands or LineageOS features?
