Lock Delay allows users to set an idle timeout period before the system unlock keyguard pattern will be enabled.

You must specify an unlock pattern in the system settings for the lock to be secure and effective.

Options now available to disable keyguard.

D70%
by D####:

It does work with froyo, just not 100% functionality. N1 lock pattern gets FC. None or simple works fine

O70%
by O####:

Behaves well on Incredible, does what it says. No more having to enter my pattern every time the screen sleeps (using 10 min. pattern lock delay).

Great app til froyo I miss longer delay time.

D70%
by D####:

Doesn't work on EGO can't disable keyguard

Y70%
by Y####:

Should be updated to support rooted 2.2 and 2.3 devices. That would at least help some of those that paid for it.

Giving it another try with GB on MotoDroid D1

K70%

Paid app - with no update for Froyo 2.2+ (not even for rooted users!) I have migrated to "Unlock with WIFI" in conjunction with "Llama".

This app does not work on the motorola atrix. No reply from customer service. Waste of money.

D70%

Worked before but now without updates it won't work on 2.2 Dev should at least issue partial refunds to customers wasted their money

Great app before I had froyo. 5 stars

M70%

Great app for pre Froyo. Good luck on fixing it Dec.

D70%
by D####:

20 would be a great lock interval. Otherwise perfect and with good features and functionality

D70%
by D####:

Doesn't work properly with Froyo. App disables the home and search soft keys after turning on screen prior to delay expiration.

O70%
by O####:

Does exactly what I need! And keeps the phone asleep unlike other lock apps. Inc.

Q70%

Doesn't work right on the incredible....uninstalled for refund

D70%
by D####:

Worked well on 2.1 until Froyo 2.2 was downloaded now it doesn't work

K70%
by K####:

The only app I've found so far that can just delay the simple keylock. Not always working but nice feature anyway. Milestone

D70%
by D####:

Worked dont work since droid update

P70%
by P####:

When upgraded from 2.2 to new phone with 2.3 this app didn't seem to be working but full reboot brought it back. Works like a charm now. (But it's true the dev seems to have lost interest.)

D70%
by D####:

It renders the Home and Back buttons broken... they don't work after a while. Uninstall resolves the issue.

G70%
by G####:

Just what I needed, Works perfectly on htc desire 2.1. Remember to set swipe pattern in app, or won't work properly.

D70%
by D####:

Would love some FroYo love...make it able to use a pin/passcode lock, not just a pattern.

D70%
by D####:

unfortunately had to uninstall. works great except the home soft button does not work on EVO when active

Q70%
by Q####:

Pity froyo 2.2 locked the api to prevent *any* app from changing lock delay settings. This feature sorely missed.

Q70%
by Q####:

I've never been able to use this app because I'm on froyo but I gave it 4 stars as to not ruin its rating. Please update for froyo! Thanks!

X70%
by X####:

Did not completely work on HTC Desire. Cannot have unlock pattern as delayed action without keyguard first.

Q70%
by Q####:

I didn't appreciate it enough. I really miss it now that it no longer works (froyo sadness)

Q70%
by Q####:

Good, but would be better if you could set it up so for example after 1min the primary lock sets and after Xmin the pattern lock sets..

Q70%
by Q####:

As stated it does not seem to work on FroYo (2.2 FRF83) Nexus One T-mobile. I'll update my review when it works again. (5-star app when it works!)

Q70%
by Q####:

Love it! Saves me from having to enter my unlock code right after the screen blanks.

Q70%
by Q####:

@Tim - Google changed the API so it probably requires root access now, hence why CM can do it......this app was aimed at non rooted devices..

H70%
by H####:

For those on 2.2+, try unlock with wifi. The lock delay in that works. Plus it unlocks when connected to home wifi!

Q70%
by Q####:

Screen off action menu should include password option. Otherwise very good.

Q70%
by Q####:

I bought this back on Eclair (nexus one), it was depreciated after the update to froyo, it is certainly possible to code this to work on froyo and gingerbread. It is disappointing to have a paid app depreciated like this, unnecessarily
