PocketSensor uses your phone's built-in proximity sensor to automatically lock the phone when it is put in a pocket. With PocketSensor, you can forget about the power button - and about the lockscreen, too!
With PocketSensor, once you put the phone in your pocket, the screen and the keys will lock automatically. And once you take it out of the pocket, the screen and the keys are unlocked automatically - with no finger swipe etc. needed...
★★★ PocketSensor is the only pocket keylock app to use native methods for both proximity check and keylock. No granting of administrator rights required. Easy install & uninstall. No extra battery usage. ★★★
NEW: You can now select to have the lockscreen enabled for manual use. This means that the lockscreen will appear each time you have locked the device using the power button, but will not come on if the phone has been put in a pocket unlocked. That way, the lockscreen will always come on when the phone has been locked by you (or has been lying around unattended), but never if you take it out of the pocket after you have put it there yourself.
Features:
• In order to prevent accidental triggering when you're holding the phone with both hands, the automatic keylock deactivates when the display is in landscape mode. (NEW: This feature can now be disabled)
• With PocketSensor active, you can still lock/unlock the phone manually.
• When the phone is not in a pocket, any key will unlock the phone completely - bypassing the lock screen. (NEW: you can now choose to keep the lockscreen)
• Also when it has been locked manually, the phone will still unlock automatically.
• When in a pocket, all keys - including the power key - will be locked. (Perfect for those phones where the power key gets pressed accidentally when in a pocket...)
• Autostart on bootup (only if Automatic Keylock was last enabled) (Note: if you have PIN entry disabled, the lockscreen will appear once after switching on the device, then never again...)
NOTE: PocketSensor makes use of the device's built-in proximity sensor whose sensitivity cannot be configured. The sensor reacts best to uniform surfaces. Depending on the exact position of the proximity sensor, the screen may lock while you are attempting to access the notification bar. In this case, try accessing the notification bar from its other end.
PLEASE NOTE: Does not work on phones made by ZTE or Hero
