Description
From the listing uploaded by “apps”.
Smart Lock is a smart app that intelligently lock/unlock your smart phone without touching it.
This app runs on Android 2.1+ devices having proximity sensor.
Note: There are some other apps of this kind on market but it has some unique features that make it distinct from other apps:
* No additional permissions required.
* No need to give the app administrative privileges.
* Beautiful and simple interface.
* Very easy to use (don't need to read manual to use the app).
* Small in size and cost.
The main objective of the app is to lock and screen off your smart phone immediately when it is not in use to save more battery.
When your phone is in your pocket or in phone cover, this app automatically locks and turn-off the phone screen to save battery.When you pull out your phone, this app automatically unlocks your phone and turn-on the phone screen to make it ready to use.
I got the idea to build this app by using Blackberry phones. It uses sensors to turn-off screen when putting the phone in phone cover and immediately turn-on phone screen when pulling out the phone from phone cover.
There are several apps of this type in market but Smart Lock has some unique features that makes it distinct from others.
Here are some unique features of Smart Lock free version:
* Simple and user friendly interface.
* One touch to start/stop Smart Lock service.
* Intelligently lock/unlock device when service is activated.
* Turn-off device screen and save battery.
* Does not slow down your device.
* Easy to use.
With pro version you will get some more features:
* Option to automatically start service on device boot.
* Widget to activate/deactivate service from the home screen(in future update).
* Show on-going notification when service is running.
* Lock app in memory.
* Faster and liter than free version.
* Does not usages background data to save network traffic.
* And a few more...

Smart Lock - Free APK: questions and answers
Can I install this APK over the version I already have?
Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.
Is the Smart Lock - Free APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is b8f1dbf5564da188bbaab5a69f06167d.
