Delayed Lock for Android
Have had the paid version of this app installed for over 2 years on my Note 4. Have had issues with it randomly not working when plugged in to power for those whole 2+ years and recently it won't even start up after a reboot. It takes more than an hour for it to start working if it ever does. Eventually, for whatever reason, it starts working. Pretty unreliable operation and looking for other options now.
The app has a good premise but is still far professional now. App fails 6 out of ten times while on WiFi letting phone lock. While driving using blue tooth app fails allowing phone to lock. App will not uninstall until many steps are performed.
Been using this since Android L and still working on Android M. Delayed Lock's timer has not failed me yet and I find it more reliable than using Smart Lock of Android i.e., on body detection and location lock. Delayed Lock's lock after disconnected to WiFi or Bluetooth device is a real plus.
Updated Review: This is one of the first Apps I always install on a new device. Sadly Google broke it with lollipop. But It seems to work fine on Marshmallow (Android 6.0) on MotoG Rev2. This is great since I really disliked the experience of using Android without Delayed Lock.
Works flawlessly on Samsung Tab E with Marshmallow! Much better than the smart-lock feature, which still seems to lock the tablet at least once every 24 hrs. Many more fatures than smart lock too. Much better than the SkipLock app I was using on my last tablet with Android 4.4.4. The shortcuts are useful too. A very impessive app and impessively secure when using 'protect settings.' Kudos to developer for a great app with a perfectly reasonable try-out period and a price that is more than fair for such a feature-rich and functional app.
Seems to work to delay lock but fights with Android Pay about PIN vs Password. I want Password, Android Pay disables all my credit cards. Now App won't allow removal.
Now, for my moto x on 5.1, it randomly activates the lock screen when WiFi unlock should keep it unlocked. Support said the app's working normally after sending app log. Bluetooth unlock works fine, but I can use android's smart lock for that.
Not working ,it's says install delayed lock first and then notification toggle, I tried it that way , still the problem persist
Works great on my Samsung Note Pro -- Can't wait for it to work on 7.x for my Edge 7. I miss it.....
Asks for permission to access all data and wipe device... bite me!
Excelente aplicación para hacer cómodo y tener protegido el sistema de bloqueo por contraseña al móvil.
Works fantastic on my Note 4 (6.0.1) always use it
App is perfect but adding one more widget, configurable to a set time, for example, having a widget that when pressed, phone would be unlocked for 5 or 10 minutes. I know we have this option but not quite as right now if we set a time it will allways have that time and sometimes it's just not safe. this would make it 5* for me.
Bit buggy. App icon disappears from Launcher after a restart. Need to reinstall to get it back. Screen keeps flushing after unlocking. Sometimes, WIFI will be connected, still the screen will be locked. Might purchase after the trial is over.
4th app of this type that I tried and this is the one that works properly. As inbuilt smart lock features of android are so flakey I just wanted an app that would disable the lock screen when attached to defined WiFi networks and Bluetooth devices and enable it when not. This does both (and more). Other apps would not lock the device when I left a WiFi zone and would only lock after i woke the phone once...this one does. Lots of other useful features like immediate lock when opening the app itself
This was for sure an awesome app and it worked flawlessly for a day and then it stopped. I'm not sure why because it really does seem amazing.
Would be really nice if you could add support for Finger Print scanner passwords.
After restarting mobile
Works well for me on two phones... Googles smart lock is useless this is much better
working on marshmallow it was me
Works perfectly. Well made app
Great!
Very useful app
This app worked exactly how you want it and was great. Unfortunately after upgrading to a Galaxy S5 and Android 5.0 Delayed Lock doesn't work. After upgrading to android 6.0 I can use the app again but I have to disable finger print unlock and use a pin or password instead which defeats the whole security this phone offers. TL:DR don't bother if you own a Samsung
Could not create pattern lock or use fingerprint unlock. 5 stars if implemented.
update 11/12/15: The app keeps forgetting my PIN that i have saved - Samsung Note 4. When I re-enter it, it will remember it for a variable amount of time - anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 days. Update 9/19/15 - THANK YOU! This new update now works on my Samsung Note 4 running 5.0.1 - much appreciated. I've used this on my Note 3 and now on my Note 4. It has been seamless once I established the wi-fi and Bluetooth conditions to keep my phone unlocked in safe environments. Update - no longer works at all with Lollipop upgrade.
I love this app and promote it as much as I can. However, this release is not working on my 2013 Moto X. For about a week, it would not delay locking while in trusted WiFi even if I tried turning it off/on. Now it does not lock the phone, no matter where I am. I really really really hope this gets fixed. I like this app enough to buy it again if I had to and knew that would fix the issue.
I used the stock 6.0.1 Smart Lock with CM13 on my Find7 and it seemed to be too inconsistent with knowing I'm connected to a trusted device. I normally don't run with a password but I like the idea of having one. So this is the best of both worlds passwords when I need it, no password when I don't! Keep up the good work Dev, hope you keep supporting this app. Just bought the full key
Seems to do the job but on my Samsung (Android 5.1.1) it's not an option to do pattern unlock which is annoying - having to revert to a pin unlock. But apart from that it's great so far. I use it to keep the phone from locking when connected to my cars bluetooth. If it locks the Samsung S-Voice can't be activated through the hands free
I wanted to avoid having to use Location Services to get the functionality of Smart Lock at home and in another location (using Trusted Places). This brilliantly designed app picks up on my chosen WiFi networks and does its job without any need for Location Services (and without any need for the offered free Location plug-in) on my phone, even though I am on a Moto E (2015) with the ornery Android 5.0.2 (Lollipop). No problem here, it turns out. Works perfectly on my home network and another (distant) network, and lets me leave the whole Location Services can of worms out of the picture completely.
Has worked fine since last update for my encrypted Android 6.0 Nexus 5. It does what it's supposed to do. And have yet to encounter any issues. Only minor complaint is that it does not seem to work with pattern lock. So I run with PIN.
Great app. The only one that allowed me to create a lockscreen toggle buttons with tasker on lollipop, which was impossible before because of security changes in lollipop.
This app is my nightmare. I'm not even sure a factory reset would help me get rid of it. I can't believe I spent money to never be able to use my phone normally again
Update 3/30/16: This app saved my new S7 Edge's lock screen bug. It locks after several minutes of inactivity, regardless of the settings or smart lock options. Thanks for keeping my sanity. Only problem, my notifications don't make sounds any more. I uninstalled and the sounds came back. ¶ [Works as described, sometimes. It always randomly locks when connected to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and switching between the two.]
I've been using this app for over a year, but now it fails to detect the license I purchased. Other than that, it's a great app.
Don't know if I still need it on the Moto X Style (seems to provide more options by itself than my orevious phone) but it seems to work well.
Nice App. Does what it claims. Not sure what the "Tasker Plugin" is for since it always takes me to purchase an app called "Locale" for $9.99? One suggestion: Why not use the proximity sensor to utilize an "on-body detection smart unlock" ?
Works on galaxy 6. Has a couple things I would like changed but it works well
Android 6.0 Moto X pure/style, rooted. Locks when connection to android wear is lost and unlocks when connection reestablished. Not the most pretty app and could look better.

When my phone is connected to my pebble i don't have to enter my password. It sounds simple but it's just how I want it. The android trusted device password bypass does not work as well, you still have to swipe the lock screen which annoys me more than I could even begin to describe. I hope this can be ported to nougat or I will be tearing my hair out.
