Welcome to the LockMenu, we are very excited that so many of you like the app. Please send us feedback, new features and issues, we respond to all emails ([email protected])
Lock Menu is a replacement lock screen that gives you the ability to launch applications and shortcuts directly from your lock screen. Lock Menu gives you the ability to customize 7 individual sliders so you can build a lock screen that fits your needs.
Launch an application, direct text, or direct dial all from your lock screen.
No need to unlock your phone and navigate to your Home app, just to launch another application. Lock Menu allows you to access the tasks you perform regularly on the first screen that appears.
This version is supported by ads. The ad free version may be found at Lockmenu Pro. Other than removing the ads there are no other differences between Lockmenu Pro (paid) and Lockmenu (ad supported).

- Updates and Testing – Since LockMenu controls access to your phone we must test extensively. We have 6 different models of android phones we test on before releasing the code to a test group. Our extensive testing slows down adding new features. If we were implementing a game, a mistake would not be as critical, we are controlling your phone so a mistake is more then annoying.
- Quirky behavior – Every type of android phone is slightly different. Changes we make may work differently on different types of phone (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S vs. Droid 2 vs. any HTC phone). We currently test on 6 different phones prior to releasing to a small set of users for testing. Even with all this testing, there are some quirky behaviors (like the normal android unlock slider periodically coming up) that we cannot completely fix. We have to fool android into letting us do what we do.
- Performance - We are constantly looking at ways to improve the performance of the LockMenu application. For HTC users please see the “HTC Phones” discussion on the support page (www.lockmenu.com/support). One use of the Lockmenu Background service is to prepare the screen for display of the LockMenu as the phone is going to sleep. This eliminates having to generate the screen when the phone wakes up. We will continue to look at ways to improve the apps performance and welcome any suggestions.
- Security (Pin, password, Pattern)- If you use Android's unlock security (e.g. PIN/Password/Pattern) please see our FAQ at http://lockmenu.com/faq. While LockMenu works with Android's unlock security (works the best with Pattern), it's not as clean as we would like...we find this very frustrating but its due to Androids security implementation.
