Works as expected

Was a little weary as there hasn’t been a recent update and some of the other solutions found no longer seem to be available. Happy to report this has been working great with my M2 Mac mini and paired with the remote pro app does everything I need. Hope the dev continues to update as needed, made me a happy customer

Sonoma issues on Intel Mac

Used to work to automatically wake and login to my intel iMac. After Sonoma the auto wake still works but the auto login is broken. Still works great on M1 Air.

Weird issue

Worked ok for a few days but when my phone was in another room today I got logged out of my Mac ever 20 seconds. Feared a virus but it had something to do with Unloxw. Deleted and problem gone.

Contacting developer options

Will not subscribe to twitter to message developer. Would be nice if the distance from Mac had a custom option or at least multiples of 5. Thanks

Useful tool but a little buggy

It can be a pain to connect to your phone. Sometimes it just won’t work, so you have to disconnect your phone, restart your mac, and pair it to your phone again, but it does work otherwise and very useful when it’s working properly.

Awesome!!!

Still the best app on my iPhone!! I’ve been using this app since it was MacID. I’ve reviewed it before but wanted to reiterate that it’s still the best!!

It works incredibly well!!!

I LOVE how amazing this works. I mainly use this when I’m not wearing my watch (cause it’s charging) and I can simply look at my phone when I get a notification to unlock it

- Provides a fix to stop Unlox for iOS' underlying database file from growing way too large, eventually crashing the app.
- Provides a fix for people who's database files were too large to load into the app, causing the app to crash before Unlox for iOS could apply the regular fix added. Unfortunately the only fix for this once it's crashing is to delete the underlying database file, so you'll need to set up again if this affects you. Apologies!
- Fixes the widget not working correctly with Dark Mode.
- Improves Unlox for watchOS, but I would like to completely re-write the Apple Watch app to make it faster and more useful..
