Pointless
It only works AFTER you’re signed in. You cannot unlock your Mac with this app. Completely pointless.
Convenient
This makes locking and unlocking my computer very convenient. My one gripe is with the annoying reminder popups about turning on Bluetooth when it is off. If I have Bluetooth off I probably don’t want to use this app. There should be an option to silence these or they need to be much less frequent.
Works like a charm
I have a M1 MacBook Pro. It may appear like this app hasn’t been updated in a long time, but it works great. I’m so tired of the finicky Apple Watch that sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t open my Mac and my fingerprint reader that doesn’t work most of the time. This little app needs to have the i phone nearby of course to unlock the Mac, but you just look at your phone and it unlocks the Mac pronto. I would say the one issue it has as far as I’m concerned is that it does add to the battery drain on your phone so that would be one consideration but given that I am very pleased with this app. It even allows you to change the app icon on your iPhone to a different color!

Excellent App
It works sometimes but if the Mac has been asleep for a while Unlox needs a nudge by opening the phone settings and opening the Bluetooth settings and trying to connect the phone to the iMac. We know it won’t connect because Apple will not allow it but trying seems to prompt the app to work.I’ve added a star because the app seems to get too know the iMac, I still sometimes have to give it a “ nudge “ by clicking the mouse but I think it’s brilliant 👍.it keeps auto locking when not asked to 😢 IT KEEPS AUTO LOCKING EVEN WHEN THE AUTO LOCK FEATURE IS TURNED OFF , IT DOES IT WHILST I’M AT MY MAC , CAN YOU SOLVE THIS PLEASE 🙏🏽 ITS A PAIN. DO YOU TAKE ANY NOTICE OF THESE REVIEWS? IT KEEPS AUTO LOCKING !!!!!! Hello again, just thought I would update you on this app , well it was good before but since I upgraded my phone to an iPhone 12 it’s even better, more or less instant. Great.I don’t know what you’ve done but it seems to work great now 👍

Bluetooth required
This should be said before you buy. Also, after I declined because I value privacy, no I have to open up settings and do more work to make it function. Regret.
