Doesn't work

BinkDolittle

Nice idea. Didn't work for me at all.


had to uninstall

nosillacast

while it did what it said, my Mac would lock up while I was in the middle of doing things so I had to get rid of it. Good idea, maybe a new rev would work better...


Doesn't work

JonathanHagans

Mac randomly restarts or goes to sleep when phone is nearby


Password won't work to unlock

TeraSam

I thought maybe it's because I had cap lock, or special characters or something. Trying to get their attention.


Needs some work

herom99

Great idea! I'm one of those people who always lock their computer. I'll even do it when I'm home by myself. Setting everything up was very easy, on both my iPhone and Mac. However, I was never able to get past the lock screen. For some reason the password was always missing the first character. After entering it myself, I was able to log in.


Tether needs Bluetooth version 4

Your MAC needs to have Bluetooth 4 to install this software. Too bad.


Way too sensitive, not sensitive enough

ParanoidMike

Like most reviewers, this is a nice concept marred by inconsistent or poorly-tuned execution. My Mac would lock frequently when neither I nor my iPhone had moved, and sometimes when I walked up to the Mac, it just wouldn't unlock. Became more irritating and unhelpful until I just uninstalled Tether from my Mac.


Novelty

I am Jack's iTunes Account

It doesn't work very well, options are limited MacID is much more refined, more options, and better all around.


Newest update doesn’t work now

Momtofour

Updated recently and now it doesn’t work. Prior to this it was an amazing app. If it updates and starts working again I will revise. In theory it’s a great app, when it works. It’s inconsistent.


Crash and burn

@lkx

Crashes constantly all three, mac, iPhone and watch. No usable at all
