About Wifi screen lock manager
FAQ at the end
Tired of unlocking your phone all the time? Especially when you're safe at home or in your car?
Then Wifi screen lock manager is the application you're waiting for.
By configuring "Safe" WIFI or Bluetooth devices you'll tell Wifi screen lock manager when it can block the autmomatic screen lock.
So each time you reach home, enter your car or use a bluetooth headphone your device will not lock.
This is still an early application so please be nice and report issues before giving bad reviews.
Hope you'll like it.
FAQ
This application does not support "type X" (Swipe, PIN, ...) locking.
It supports all of them.
But when you change the Screen lock type the application must be restarted or the current trusted WIFI must be reselected. After that it just works.
Looking for a solution for a future release.

Does it need ROOT or Admin privileges setup ?
No
Why is Blutooth "Device X" not working ?
Not all devices keep open connections with your Anrdoid device so they can't be used to define as "Safe".
We can't, for the moment, identify them and avoid displaying them in the user interface.
Why is there multiple WIFI with the same name ?
We're keeping the WIFI router technical ID so when you're on a WIFI with multiple routers and one name SSID) you can chose which of the WIFI routers trust.

I encountered a bug. When i press the home button to unlock the screen, the Google search engine is automatically launched. Google is set to launch when home button is long pressed, however I'm not pressing it long in this case. I use an LG L80.

Didn't work on my Samsung Galaxy S5 running android 5.0. I still have to unlock the screen when connected to the wifi I chose in the setup.

Works on Moto G2, with minor crashes.Would be great to add material design instead of current look. Also nice to leave swipe unlock rather than none. Great work!

A little buggy but works most of the time. At least it is a free alternative that works even with pattern unlock. UI needs more work though. Thx developer!

I had Skiplock but upon Android 5.0 OTA it stopped working. Skiplock used to unlock my phone at home when detecting my wifi signal. The Skiplock owner ranted he couldn't update Skiplock to work with Lollipop. This app replaces Skiplock to do the same for free & it works with Lollipop just fine! 5.1: app causes screen to blackout. Forces me to reboot.

If this worked for pin, password or pattern lock it would be great but it only works on swipe to unlock. How lazy are you that you can't swipe to unlock? If it gets updated to work with all unlock options I'll give it 5 stars.

Has worked fine until updating to lollipop. Started to crash the phone at random(black screen requiring reboot). The 5.0.1 update just made it worse. I have now disabled the app until further update.

It worked perfectly for me. Then I added widgets to my CM10.1 lock screen. Then it stopped working. I just uninstalled and reinstalled and it's working perfectly again. I haven't been out much with it yet, but so far I'm happy.

Really a good app, easy to use, and working on Lollipop. However, each time wifi statis had been changed, i need to turn on screen to active the lockscreen being lock or unlock. Otherwise, 5 stars

Most importantly, on Samsung Note 3, (running 4.4.2)app does not discriminate between "safe", "not safe", and "no WiFi available". The app keeps the lockscreen always un-enabled. Since the device never locks, anybody finding the phone can swipe to get in.

This app cannot work when applications have device administrator status, meaning if you have a corporate email account or you want to take full advantage of the Android Device Manager this app is unusable.

Having to disable all Device Administrators in order for this app to function is just not feasible. Renders this app unusable. Fix this and it would be a great tool.

Works well on my moto g, but not my tablet. No other apps set as device administrator but this app thinks there are so won't work. NEEDS TO USE NOTIFICATION OR SERVICE AS GETS KILLED BY KIT KAT.

It says "Screen Lock disabled", but I still get the lock screen. Also, I don't understand the UI, and there are no labels or any explanation. I'll stick with Llama.

This app works with pattern unlock - a feature that it's most prominent competitor does not support. The app doesn't come with any instructions or FAQs but is intuitive to set up.
