Searched but found nothing relevant. Looking for the best Cydia app to protect apps or folders with password. (applies to iPad too)

Anyone have experience with these?
 
I use iProtect. It works great for me. You can select which apps you want to be passcode-locked and leave the others alone. To me it's worth every penny.

I use Lockdown Pro. It has the same features including Lock-Delay, so you don't have to enter the passcode everytime you open the app until you put the phone on standby. And also quick-lock: Choose which apps to lock directly from the springboard. I think It was about 2 bucks on Cydia.
There are several other password protection apps worth checking out on Cydia such as: mAdvLock, Locktopus.

Locktopus. Works great for me
