Lock Manager

Has anyone checked out Lock Manager yet? So far, I'm really impressed. Calendar, weather, and battery, and it actually looks very professional. Give it a shot!

Here's some stuff I just made in about 10 seconds. It's super easy to configure:

Lock screen, ignore the boring background, I made it plain just to demonstrate:



Live tile, in black, front side; This is not my finished lock screen! Just put the new tile up top to experiment:


Live tile, in black, back/flip side:


Another thing I love about this app: custom calendar, weather, battery, and lock screen, all with one background task.

I just installed it, so it could be a battery gulper, unreliable, who knows. But for now it looks promising.

Wow! This is a really good find! At first I thought it was like an App Locker like on Android, but this is also pretty cool! I'm going to tip WPCentral on this.

Thanks for moving it, I thought I put it in the apps forum. Sorry!

So far, the biggest negative is having a multi-function live tile, but still needing shortcuts to get to calendar, weather, and battery. I wish there was a way to make the tile link to the calendar app (or a functional weather app) and use the link in the main app list as a way to get to the app itself. Small complaint.
