Can Total Launcher brick my phone?

So I wanna install this along with good lock to customize my phone. But my mom gets mad when I ask to install it (I have parental controls) and says I can't because I'll mess up and it then wont be able to work or be fixed. Basically I'll brick my phone. When I checked good lock reviews it was about specific features being bad rather than the app, and for total its just the pricing errors and stuff with billing.

I want to compile a list of research to show more reasons why I should be able to install this. Pls list the good and bad about this app. Thanks in advance

Galaxy store?

(Summary): How do I install an app from galaxy store without my parents being notified?

So I want to install goodlock since I want to customize my phone a bit. I thought it would be fine since its made by samsung themselves and all of the low reviews are about specific plugins.

I went to talk to my parents and they got MAD, like passionate shouting mad like I had just taken drugs or something. They said, "Your phone is not a toy for you to experiment with. It is meant purely for communication and not for your entertainment." Well something like that since I cant remember word for word.

Their reason is that people have broken their phones customising, though I'm pretty sure that's physically impossible with goodlock.

Last time I installed something from galaxy store (it was an app manager or installer thing) my parents got a notification and I barely managed to pass it off as something my phone needed during update, since it was still brand new and setting up and downloading updates.

Please, I get good marks. I've done research and I've asked nicely and they haven't even properly listened to me. I do not hate them or think they are entirely wrong but I feel this is unfair.
