About Dislock

Dislock (formerly Pebble Locker) makes use of the device administrator API to control your lock screen. Enjoy using your Android without a lock screen when your Pebble watch, Android Wear, selected Bluetooth devices or WiFi networks are connected and the security of a lock screen when you walk away, causing your devices or networks to disconnect.


Using one trusted device at a time is free. More than one trusted device requires an in app purchase of $2.99 USD


Once the app has been enabled as a device administrator, you can set a pin or password and have your device lock based on your preferences.
Dislock does not support any lock other than pin or password


Device Support
===========
Dislock supports bluetooth devices that maintain a constant connection to your phone and show up in your list of paired devices as well as Android Wears. It does not currently support bluetooth low energy devices such as Fitbits.


Dislock will not circumvent apps such as corporate email that require your device to have a pin, if you use an app that requires a pin or password on your device, Dislock will not work for you. Dislock will also not remove the pin or password on encrypted devices. Dislock does not support pattern locks.


Uninstall
=======
To uninstall you must deactivate Dislock as a device administrator and reboot


FAQ
=======
Help, I'm locked out, what do I do?
In the event that you become locked out you can visit the Android Device Manager (https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager) and change the pin or password on your device and unlock it using your new pin or password.

N70%
by N####:

I don't use a pin, just a swipe to lock my phone. I want to streamline the launching of apps on my phone from my watch. This app wakes my phone but I still have to swipe and wait for the app I've launched to launch, which isn't really streamlining much. I'd rather not have the clutter than that, to be honest.

E70%
by E####:

It worked fine with Moto 360 and Samsung galaxy s4. Easy to configure settings. Almost 5 stars. My device did not show up in Connected Trusted Devices but the app works fine.

Y70%
by Y####:

Just as the title says. I loved the app on my previous older phone, but no support for this. :(

N70%
by N####:

With app properly configured, it will not unlock the phone automatically. Requires a pin rather than a swipe to unlock the phone. This makes the phone more inconvenient to unlock. Caution-- once this app is installed you cannot uninstall it. Will not deactivate on my phone. Edit: will uninstall after reboot.

N70%
by N####:

This is such a great app, I just forget that I have it most of the time. The only complaint that I have is that you can't use a pattern instead of a pin or password.

N70%
by N####:

Works great except for a small problem where the app connects to my Pebble Time, but does not show on the connected devices bar, under the Unlocked (Automatic) bar. Not a big problem but it's a little bothering.

N70%
by N####:

Couldnt get app to 'register' one and only wifi network I wanted it to and then problems uninstalling. Not sure I need such an app anyway so trying to get rid.

No longer works on Lolipop. Was a nice app to use until then. RIP.

Shame. Uninstalled.

Q70%
by Q####:

It's fantastic when it works, but unfortunately, it usually doesn't—not with the Pebble connection, anyhow. I've tried emailing the author, but no response. Sad, because this app could save me so much hassle if it worked!

V70%
by V####:

I had no problem using other apps (Tasker, AutomateIt) to disable the lock screen... But only for common places such as home and work. It's a pain to unlock each time I'm out and about. I struggled with the above apps to recognize my pebble watch to no avail. 30 seconds in setting up Dislock and I never need to unlock my phone when it's with me no matter where I am.

Q70%
by Q####:

I can't thank you enough. I'd become so frustrated at not being able to get AutomateIt to consistently leave my phone unlocked when I'm at home. Took a little digging, but I finally happened upon your app... THANK GOODNESS! So far, it's doing exactly what I'd wanted: Unlocked on Home WiFi, locked when I'm out of range. (I've already upgraded so I'll also be able to have it unlocked when I'm at my Mom's place.) Thank you so very much for developing this great app!

Great app wich bring back Asus Zenwatch (manager) missing main feature after latest upgrade, "Unlock my phone" was gone, which is the main reasons I bought it. My phone is Asus PF500KL which I connect to the watch is still on Android 4.4.2, since I refused to update to latest v5.0 on my phone, why?, because it does missing alot of unique default features of PF500KL, which Asus still working on it. Try it out as I do, and find out why should I giving 5 Stars rating for this great "Dislock" by Luke Korth here

Q70%
by Q####:

Latest update made it so I had to reconfigure everything. That was annoying and not called out in any way. Had to troubleshoot for about an hour before I figured out the problem. The companion pebble app needed to be downloaded and setup before the pebble could unlock the phone again. After that, it works again. Also, using more than one unlock device (e.g. pebble+wifi) now makes it ask for payment :(

Q70%
by Q####:

Doesn't work. Doesn't lock when my device is disconnected, does lock when it's connected. Pointless.

by Q####:

Works as it is intended to.However, please add using fingerprint as lock screen password with the current pin and password.Thanks

No need to enter password to unlock device when at home! Thank you!

This thing works so well and consistent that i forgot that it was an app that a developer made. Not and Android baked-in feature.

It no longer automatically locks when my pebble is disconnected.

Love how it locks when I leave a trusted connection.

H70%
by H####:

Does just what it says. I have bluetooth hearing aids and couldnt use voice dial with phone locked. Didnt want to have phone unprotected with no lock. This fixed it. Thanks

U70%
by U####:

With the recent Lollipop update, I can sadly no longer use this app. It worked great, and I really feel bad uninstalling it. To anyone running anything below Lollipop, I recommend this app all the way, especially if you own a Pebble. Hopefully you guys can find a workaround for Lollipop. But for now, I guess I have no choice but to uninstall. You've served me well, Dislock. You've served me well.

K70%
by K####:

Have not been using it for a long time and I forgot the password and I can't seem to uninstall it,is there any way to solve this problem?

I70%
by I####:

Possibly a way to set a lock time? For example say you sleep between 9pm-6am, have your phone stay locked between that time even though your pebble is connected.

by C####:

This application - which is a companion to the respective Pebble application - works flawlessly, as described and without issue... If you prefer Pebble products over other "smart" watches (such as Android Wear) - and with the usage times of Pebble products, it's easy to see why - this should be one of the very first applications you install! Highly recommended.

U70%
by U####:

It's a great app once you get it working. I use it religiously and it makes me feel really good about leaving my phone alone while it's charging in controlled environments like where I work. My suggestion is to have more "how to" information on the app, since getting it setup for the first time is a major pain without any information on the app. The devs are very quick to respond and are very helpful.

I LOVE THIS APP! but now that I have updated it is no longer compitabkr.

U70%

Working good with android wear.. But seems to only work if you have it set to shut off screen..

Short of having an RFID chip implanted in your arm, this is a great way to make using your phone do much more convenient.

U70%
by U####:

Works as advertised and is now a default/must have component of my Pebble/phone pairing.

C70%
by C####:

Looking for a companion with Delayed Lock. This doesn't seem to play nice, keeps the phone locked (requiring unlock) if I have a Bluetooth headset connected (auto-unlock via Delayed Lock) even when Pebble connected. Good try but no dice

Its all great but sometimes it says its disconnected but my watch is connected to my phone and it won't lock my phone

Just battling to get my S3 to trust the pebble BT connection

N70%

I love this app. I use it with my car Bluetooth and trusted WiFi sources (don't own a pebble). Would give 5 stars except it closes by itself sometimes and has to be restarted.
