It helps to know what device model and OS you are using though the following steps for changing from pattern lock to slide are for Android OS 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich): 1. Unlock your Android device 2. Find the Applications menu and select "Settings" 3. Under the "PERSONAL" group, select " Security" 4. Under "SCREEN SECURITY" group, select "Screen Lock" This will ask for the security pattern first. 5. The options for screen lock will appear, select "Slide" and you are done! Hope this helps.
In Google Play store, I found Private Zone is a good applock, small size easy to use specially you can lock whichever app using this, like Whatsapp, Messenger, Facebook, etc. There is no delay between locking and unlocking. It's good to keep privacy safe. LEO Privacy Applock Hide Safe Android Apps on Google Play
