Near Lock App Reviews

Does everything it says and going pro is worth it

Its works as advertised!

Not mcdonalds i mean the app

This is an awesome niche app for those people who want to unlock their Mac with their phone. Once I set it up the very first time, I have met had any problems and it has worked perfectly.

Very useful app. works great with my MacBook Air.

World perfectly with iPhone 6s Plus iOS 9.31

Near lock is awesome when I forget to lock my Mac when I leave my desk.

Get the in app purchase. Its a miracle. Youll never have to type password again.

I have tried MacID to perform the tasks and it failed miserably, in the period of one month it only locked/unlocked the Mac laptop every 5-8 attempt. It needed to be reset many times and was just useless. Summon the Near Lock this week, not a single failed attempt (have had a few issues with the actual distance) but at least the app works very well compared to others. I can accept the less than perfect distance issues, as my iPhones GPS usually has my location as 4-8 houses away. Therefore the Bluetooth not getting the exact distance perfect, I can deal with as long as it works and doesnt cause a lot of grief to actually use it! This app is not 100% there yet, but Ill say it makes life just a bit more user friendly and it has the cool factor of being able to lock & unlock your Mac without having to dig your iPhone out of your pocket and with the Apple Watch it is just that much easier. Great product overall, definitely recommended by me, and I love any electronics and of course have many from Apple which I switched to 12 years ago and have quite the Apple ecosystem going on here. I can rest assured that my Mac is secured once I walk away, as I always rely on the audible sound now from the Near Lock iPhone app (or the confirmation wrist tap from the Apple Watch) to let me know that the Mac is indeed locked down.

Love this app I was waiting for something like this to come out for the reason that I all forget to lock my Mac but now I have no excuse it work how it say it work.

This App works stably and very useful, I love it!

The best app ever! You leave and mac lock, you return and the mac unlock. Super friendly app to use.

Its a revolution for user of macs and iPhones.... Just USE, and review it...

This app takes ease of use to a whole new level! Thanks for a wonderful app guys!

Its a neat concept better left to a dedicated device not the phone / App combo. Its just too random. Sometimes, despite a 4ft radius, Ill be outside or 30 feet away and it will notify me for an unlock. Other times Itll be right near the computer and while Im working it will lock the screen on me. After it did that a couple times in a row I wasnt very happy. It also seems like if I start to use the phone some operations or Apps interrupt the Bluetooth and lock the computer. Then I checked the battery usage of my iPhone6 and found this App was the top battery user. Argh! It just locked on me again even though I unchecked the lock when I leave. I dont blame the App really but I dont see it working well on a multi-use device like the phone and its no friend to my battery life either.
