I am still studying my undergraduate course in CS and I prepare to build a desktop program to remove lock screen passcode as a side project. I know there are kind of service such as Android Device Manager or Samsung Find My Phone but I find there are still many people who are not aware of this. So such a tool is a great help for them.

What is main challenge for developing such an app and is there any third party C#/C++ library for this?

What I have tried:

I searched on codeproject and can't find a suitable library for this.

The screen passcode is a security feature. Trying to bypass this screen is considered malware. Do not expect much help here.

We do not condone, support, or assist in the production of malicious code in any way, form, or manner. This is a professional site for professional developers.

And trying to remove any of the security features that the user has applied to his device is a malicious activity.

If you want to know how to create such things, you need to visit a hacking site: but be sure to disable all firewalls and antivirus products first or they won't trust you enough to tell you.
