Screensaver + free App Reviews

Great App! I liked the dot lock feature, but a hide from dock option would give this 5 stars!

This is a great concept, BUT! Its a memory hog, using around 600 mb RAM. And Id like an option to turn off the clock. If you go to use apps it stays on top and over the top of your program. I uninstalled until these concerns are fixed FYI- The screen shots above are NOT the program thats here for d/l

It would be cool if you could make this work with the caffeine app. its a great concept but I use my computer for studying a lot so being able to turn off the screensaver+free app without quitting it would be nice.

The reason I do not like this app very much is because when you write the password in, you have to keep clicking the button to go on it. ALso, it would be better if you could just glide your mouse over it so it could unlock. I no you do not need to set a password, but for people that are cautious of getting their stuff stolen, can use one, and it is annyoing to click the password.

its a great app, but it really needs a start over button, so if u mess up when drawing ur pattern, you can start over instead of having to continue drawing a random pattern until it says "incorrect passcode". it also should have a confirm button, because that way you have to enter the right passcode to get in. now, if u want to break in to the computer by guessing the code, it will only say that its incorrect when u make the correct number of strokes. that is, if u make a pattern that is one line, its easy to guess because it tells u that its incorrect after the very first line u guess.

Three versions later after the time i first installed it, you still try to shove all of your apps down my throat. That is an extremely annoying flaw. Not only that but there are other flaws too. Here are a few: -uses a lot of ram, 600MB to be exact which is truly a waste for such a simple app -it seems to disable finder while its on so when i unlock it, i have to click where the dock SHOULD be and only then things return to normal. to the average use, this could be cause for serious panic. -As another user stated, the pattern lock can be easily used to find the number of points in the combination. Kinda ruins the whole point of having a lock With these problems continuing and the developer still including annoying in-app advertisements, it shows that he/she is not trying to make a good app, but instead trying to syphon your hard-earned cash out of your wallet. Ive dealt with it up until this point but i am putting an end to it, finally, by uninstalling it

I love this app, it gives a new way to lock your machine and it works great, but the newest version has a couple things that previous ones didnt have. First, it limits your password to 3 dots, it makes sense since its the free version but it shouldnt mention it on the unlock screen, it should only say it where you select your pattern. Anyway I understand the limitation and Im OK with it, but the other thing that came with the update is a REALLY ANNOYING popup that comes every so often asking you to buy the software. The problem is that the computer doesnt need to be locked for that to show up, so you are either watching a video, working or whatever and the popup shows up, I understand they want people to buy the full version, but this is too much, I would say the 3 dot limitation was a good thing to push people to get it.

Has a lot of great features, but the clock needs to rotate for me to want to use it as a "screensaver." My understanding is that the clock would burn into the screen since it doesnt move.

I think it would be cooler if we could use these multitouch trackpads for the pattern lock, like just swiping your finger over it like you would a touchscreen instead of holding down the mouse button too.

Good program, love it. I recomend it.

Seems like this does not support subdirectories… just like the default Mac Screensaver. If I select a directory with no pictures, and I want it to pick up the pictures in all the subdirectories underneath that directory, it doesnt. Im looking for a way for Mountain Lion to display all pictures in subdirectories… as this was removed as an option in the ML OS. :(

I love this app! It looks just like an iOS lock screen! I really like it for its simplicity, and, with the draw pass pattern, security. I changed the background image to a water droplets image to make it look just like an iOS. Great job, developers!

I love this app. Its great if you want extra security if you change the stop settings. Its awsome.

This app is really cool, it adds a different type of security. The app itself works really well and the amount of customization is really cool. The only thing that i would change was actually stated in another review. I think it would be really cool if we could use the multitouch trackpad to unlock the dot lock rather then click and drag. It would be alot quicker aswell as add a little bit of stealth when it comes to concealing what the password actually is. Thats my only request. Please consider it.

I cant see that this app does anything at all other than sit on my dock. Delete.

I opened it and didnt really like it. I thought it was something totally different. But i guess not. I was/am trying to get rid of it off my dock and off the top bar thing but it wont leave! It is just taking up space and it is frusturating me. Other than thst the pictures are ok.?

While this program has some nice pictures, it also has an ad screen encouraging the purchase of the full version. It pops up frequently when the screen saver kicks in. The pictures change, but the ad box stays firmly anchored to the spot where it pops up, totally destroying the whole point of the screen saver. Also, it has a bar at the top that includes digital time, which is the only thing about the bar that changes. These two fixed-in-stone-location features make this a revolving picture program, NOT a screen saver. It got removed from my computer within a couple of days.

App just sits there, maybe i am missing something

By far my biggest complaint about this software is the lack of user control. • You cant control the timing of fade duration, • You cant choose various types of image transitions. Theres only a quick fade transition. • You cant control zoom how close or far away you want your wallpaper pics to appear (it would be esp. useful for people who have watermarked wallpapers). • You cant control how the transparency of the clock "bar". • You cant play video as a background wallpaper. Only images. • You cant hide the cursor even when its not moving to unlock the screen Theres other things that really bother me about this too. Its nice that they offer a trial version though... but include the things mentioned above and after that Ill be more than happy to purchase this. Until then, the developers have some work to do in my opinion.

I really like the idea behind this, however, as said before me the ad that pops up does ruin the screensaver aspect. I think it should pop up after you unlock your computer to be less of a nuisance. But the biggest flaw is that it wakes my computer, sometimes at 3am while Im trying to sleep so I have to get up and shut my computer off again. MBPs wouldnt have this problem, but since I have an iMac this is a huge flaw. I would like to write it off as this being the free version and that you get what you pay for, but I would be upset if I paid for the full version and it did the same thing. Hopefully this bug gets fixed.
