PluckLockEx

PluckLock - Lock your phone when snatched

PluckLockEx automatically locks your phone when it detects sudden movement.

This can be used for a number of reasons, including locking your phone when it is snatched out of your hands or dropped.

**IMPORTANT**: This app uses the Device Administrator permission!

The Device Administrator permission is used for a non-root method of locking the device screen. This is used when PluckLockEx is triggered only.

**IMPORTANT!** - To remove, go to Device Administrators in settings and deactivate PluckLockEx. Then you can uninstall normally! There app contains a tool to help you do this.

it works by detecting sudden changes in acceleration (read from the accelerometer) and performing a lock action when needed.

PluckLockEx is based on PluckLock, an open source app, and comes with a number of improvements and enhancements.

Improvements include:

- AppCompat UI that adapts to native theme, supports older devices. Uses Material instead of Holo on newer devices

- Configurable lock method (device administrator, root, fake [for testing])

- Add option to test lock method

In the application page, you can configure a locking threshold of motion and select a locking method when the threshold is exceeded.

PluckLockEx is also open source!
