I've sort of got an issue. Occasionally I mistype my pin or my phone doesn't register the right keys when I'm typing it in and it takes FOREVER for that checkmark to appear so I can reenter the pin. Is there a way to put a backspace or a clear button on the keypad screen so I can quickly reenter my pin?

My feedback

Thank you for this app! Exactly what I'm looking for.
Galaxy S4 (9505)
My feedback:
1) Could you disable higlight of onscreen buttons while typing pin for sequrity purposes? On a such large screen it is really easy to look up pin from like 10 meters from a phone. I'm from Windows world (both tablet and phone) and for password boxes all on screen keyboards are not highlighted on pressing by default on Win7 and WP (actuall on WP it does but on really small amount).
2) At first UI is really confusing... I took a time before I've handled it. After opening I see uninitialized UI without my last state, but it changes to last state after 3 sec. Could you indicate somehow that you are loading settings? And could you change exit button to... e.g. 'Save'. Because I've pressed this 'X' button after configuring as a last resort (there are no other good option for closing) and beeing not sure is it save&close or close. After reopening I see that options are not saved... and only after like 3 seconds I see my options back. This is primary workflow and it is really confusing.
3) Could you provide a button like 'lock now'. It halps with a) testing of PIN behaviour while configuring or just at first time (without it I have to set 5 sec for testing and set my interval back after) b) helps to protect a phone if your absolutely sure that it should be locked now. E.g. phone charging, you should leave a room for a while and there are kids around it...
4) I have a problem with 'quick glance' feature (settings\device\motions and gestures\air gesture\quick glance). After I move my hand I got PIN screen instead of quick info.
5) For incomming call I got PIN. Never seen such behavoiur. WP, WM, iPhone, all them have swipe+delayed PIN mode, but all them allows to answer calls without PIN. I think I should be configurable and disabled by default.
6) If your swipe from up to bottom - as usual, notification bar appears. And it is working! So, I can go airplane mode without PIN...
7) When I double click home or just saying 'Hi Galaxy' on lock screen - S Voice launched. PIN request appears, but I can execute a wide set of voice commands.

Since concept is a workaround, it brings new issues. Did you think how that can be injected into system. Guys talking that Galasy S3 have similar. I'd like to be sure that my data is secure.

Hi mate Thank you so much for your valuable feedback!

Unfortunately I'm simply not skilled enough to implement most of your suggestions even though I would like to since I'm not a REAL app developer.

I've used Tasker app to make this by porting a project via app factory add-on into ac stand alone apk. So I'm limited by my knowledge of tasker and of course the limits of Tasker capabilities itself.

I may polish it a bit following your suggestions for some things but others would require real app development. Which I may learn some day :)

It should be possible for me to disable say the home button and soft keys etc. Until unlocked for extra security.

Also I plan to implement a complete lockout using the native Andriod security PIN system which can be activated remotely by texting a secret code word from any phone.

Hey guys I need some Beta testers for a brand new version coming soon. This time it uses the v native Android PIN lockscreen and secure settings to activate it...

On the downside the unlock PIN can't be user selected I will make several versions each with a different PIN which I will pm those who choose 1.

Please pm me for a BETA test

Request / Suggestion

Hi There!

I didn´t get exactly what your app do, but i´d like to suggest you to use your task habilites to build an app that make us able to slide to unlock until pattern locks get activated by time interval.

On Jelly Bean it´s stock feature, but on kitkat (I´m using LiquidSmooth custom rom) i couldn´t find a way to do this.

I´m saying that if i set locktime to 5 minutes for example, i´d like the phone to unlock with slide until this time (5 minutes or whatever), and then i could unlock just using pattern/password/pin as selected on security settings.

I think it´s simple, but don´t have any idea how to do it.

It´s like

Lock time: x minutes

screen off < lock time: slide to unlock
screen off > lock time: pattern/password/pin

ps: i´ve seen a lot of people looking for this, and nobody can make it. Help us :angel:



edit:

there´s even an scheme right here, but i can´t do... (I´m noobie you know)
