Stopped working.

Great idea... Just completely stopped working. Now its useless and won't even connect. Ive done everything (multiple times) that support said to do when it won't connect. Cannot recommend.
works for a bit then dies

Don't waste your time with this app until the developer becomes serious about its maintenance. I installed about two weeks ago and, for a while, it worked nicely. However, it has now died and restarting all devices/computers, reinstalling the app and it computer client fail to bring it back to life. Recent comments on the developer's web site are three months old. Clearly, this is a part time project that's not getting the attention it needs -- especially for a $4 app.
Works better than the rest (which isnt hard)

I have tried all the solutions for proximity iphone-mac auto lock and unlock. This is about the closest ive come to an app that is worthy of being on my “essentials” list of apps that I install immediately on getting a new phone. But; the Bluetooth connection can be kinda wonky, and proximity-only locking/unlocking is in the menu and enabled, but doesnt seem to change the default behavior. The defeult behavior which includes opening an app, waiting a few seconds to see your macbook visible (sometimes ?), pressing it, then pressing the home button for touchid. It takes longer and is more of a disruptive process than just logging in. Well, if the proximity features worked I wouldn’t mind. But since it seems like once again there is no app that will let you say “unlock when im within 10 meters, lock when im further. The design is pretty good though, and its the best thing ive found in the market space ?
Love it!

It works seamlessly from my iPhone 6+ and my Apple Watch 2nd gen, I unlock my Mac book pro easily!
Need better approach

I only need to automatically lock my Mac. I don’t want to unlock it with the desktop app. I don’t trust putting my Mac laptop password into the desktop app.
Please updat

The app hasn’t worked since the iOS 11 update. I really enjoy being able to unlock my MacBook Pro remotely/ without keystrokes. However it loses connection way to often. When it works, it works well. When it doesn't work it's just annoying and useless.
Essential app for corporate environment

This app gets used throughout the day. I greatly appreciate knowing whenever I walk away from my Mac that it is locked & secure. Even more, I smile broadly every time I walk up and see my password being entered and my screen automatically unlocked! In a corporate environment where one is required to keep computers secure, this app is essential and earns the cost of the app every day!
Dead app

It was pretty cool when it worked for a few months, but it’s pretty much dead now. I’ve tried every troubleshooting recommendation and I am now declaring this app dead.
Very bad

I tried it for a couple of hours it was working fine but after you get disconnected from the computer and try to connect again your devices lost so you have to reset your Bluetooth and all that kind of stuff
