Description
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.

★★★★★
Life Saver With the ability to instantly switch off-screen and lock phone with the touch of a button on my pebble. I am no longer at the mercy of friends stealing my phone and performing wicked deeds. Brilliant app.
★★★★★
Great for anyone using KitKat or earlier It's a shame Google made Lollipop incompatible with this app, but I still highly recommend it to anyone running 4.4 or earlier. It works flawlessly.
★★☆☆☆
Does not work and will not uninstall 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.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work Won't recognize connected pebble/ trusted Wi-Fi Using latest pebble software and the 1+ one
★★☆☆☆
Awful Doesn't work. Doesn't lock when my device is disconnected, does lock when it's connected. Pointless.
