Screenlock for Windows Mobile – PocketShield Updated to 3.2.5!

Posted on 15 December 2009 by Allistair Lee


PocketShield

PocketShield has recently been updated to v3.2.5. PocketShield is an intelligent screen locker. It completely locks the screen and hardware keys when phone wakes up and is inside your pocket or case, and unlocks it automatically as soon as you take it off. How? Most phones come with an integrated light sensor, PocketShield uses this sensor to determine if the phone is inside something(without light reaching it). So if it’s receiving light it is probably because you have it in your hand, or you have it over your desk, or someplace where there would be no reason to have it locked.

What’s New:-

  • New Settings UI (finger friendlier + scrolling friendlier + language friendlier)
  • Independent settings for screen locking and hardware keys locking(for both incoming and/or during calls)
  • New alternatives for restoring WM notification popups after unlock
  • Option to show home/today screen after unlock
  • “Except when” permissions will prevent device power off if the application is running
  • Improved ViewMode display/speed
  • WM 6.5.1+ popups will not show on top of lock screen
  • SMS notification icon will show right after arrived (regardless the “Sounds and Notifications” setting for SMS)
  • Improved incoming call protection (no more “Send Text” nor SIP blinking)
  • Full-screen caller ID display on the protecting shield for calls
  • HD2(Leo) supported
  • Overall improvements

MSRP: $14.99; Get it here!
