Full Featureset
There are advanced options to avoid ("Snooze") a RadiusLocker lock when your chosen locking wearable disconnects, such as:
π Your phone is connected to a specified WIFI network SSID
π Your phone is connected to another specified Bluetooth device
π Your phone is charging
Other handy features:
π Constant PIN mode, which temporarily disables biometric unlocking and requires PIN on a longer-term basis (until cancelled).
Automatically trigger a mode to require PIN within 8HR before your phone's alarm, to help prevent others from unlocking your phone using your face or fingerprint while you are sleeping. Smartwatch not required.
Manual triggers via Quick Settings tile, Wear OS companion app, or extra launcher icons.
Can be cancelled via its notification.
π Extra app launcher icons for an immediate lock or starting Constant PIN mode.
You can use these for assignment of physical buttons on your phone (compatibility varies). For example, double press of the power button to lock instantly or start Constant PIN mode, instead of launching your camera. Useful if you don't have Wear OS, and want to lock your phone immediately without taking it out of your pocket or doing a restart on your wearable to sever the connection while in proximity.
Can be launched by Tasker in the background under custom scenarios of your choosing. Example: When leaving your favourite WIFI network, configured in the Tasker profile, launch the "app" for Constant PIN mode to disable biometrics while out in the world.
β° Lock retry every ~15 minutes if your phone didn't lock due to a Snooze.
β° Delay locking by set period in case watch Bluetooth disconnection was temporary and returns after a few seconds.
π Lock if SIM gets removed.
βοΈ Launch a Tasker task upon RadiusLocker lock, with an optional delay period that automatically aborts it when your locking wearable returns.
Could text someone with your lost phone's location or have it make noises after the delay period.
If Tasker has root, you could perform powerful operations (at your own risk): you could be destructive with your phone's filesystem if your watch doesn't reconnect within a few hours.
ποΈ Require biometric authentication when cold-launching main app screen or cancelling scheduled lock retry and other events. Offers PIN fallback.
β Multi-watch mode: if you switch between multiple wearables, set RadiusLocker to lock your phone only after the last remaining locking wearable disconnects. This avoids extra locking if you change to a different watch before leaving the house, for example.
Wear companion app:
There's a free Wear (2.0+) companion app that can be used to manually lock your phone while still in range (overriding any active Snooze state) - both RadiusLocker phone and Wear apps need to be installed and fully configured.
Forcing a shutdown on your wearable/smartwatch can also be used to a remotely lock your phone with RadiusLocker, if both devices are still in proximity and RadiusLocker is not under a Snooze state.
RadiusLocker is designed to be used with Wear devices, fitness trackers, and other wearable devices, though it should be compatible with any generic Bluetooth device you'd want to be used for locking.
RadiusLocker will not work on ZTE devices, as our research has shown that ZTE's implementation of the administrator screen lock doesn't actually disable Smart Lock features.
Because of the Device Administrator permission, later uninstallation first requires you to remove RadiusLocker from the Device Admin list in the OS's settings (searching for Admin should get you there).
