Brilliant App I was looking for an app that changes my pin periodically. This app is exactly what I was looking for. No complaints. Well done, dev. Two question though, will the empty notification get removed once reliability for all devices improves? What are the known devices that will affect the reliability if you turn the blank notification off?

Great idea... This app is great and works perfectly but it would be cool if you could implement face unlock into it too.

Very good The concept is awesome... And also it provides the user with a default PIN, just in case...
