• The lock screen is updated when power consumption is minimal or after 30 minutes of time
• Just light ON your phone to see your lock screen info
• Use 3D Touch to see a more detailed view of the items on the lock screen

AUTOMATIC BACKGROUND SERVICE

Lock Info has two different lock screen refreshing modes: the real-time, and the battery optimized.

The real-time mode continuously monitors information changes and updates the lock screen accordingly. The real-time way increases device’s power consumption but keeps the lock screen information up to date all times.

In the battery optimized mode, Lock Info will update the lock screen at least in every 30 minutes.

If set to the real-time mode, the continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. To get the best results, use the battery optimized lock screen updates.

USER INTERFACE AND SETTINGS

Lock Info will also ask permissions to access your calendars and reminders. The app holds your privacy in all circumstances. You can view and modify the calendar event details with the iPhone’s Calendar user interface directly from the app.

Lock Info has straightforward adjustments. Just select weather services and calendars you want to follow. Then adjust the time window and amount of shown notifications on your lock screen. You can now leave the app, and it will continue to update your lock screen from the background.

You are encouraged to use dedicated calendar apps to organize your calendar events. Lock Info gets the updates from them automatically, even from other devices.

FEEDBACK AND SUPPORT

We hope Lock Info will help you to keep necessary information on hand, and we are eager to hear all of your feedback on our pages: facebook.com/LockInfo.

Support requests can be sent directly from the app.

Pros and cons of Lock Info app for iPhone and iPad

Lock Info app good for

It shows your calendar on the lock screen as stated but rated only four stars as the current calendar entry keeps showing as tomorrow. Also it is a true iPhone only app as using it on the iPad did not always show on the lock screen.
Exactly what I was looking for - all my events and reminders are shown without needing any action. Also very happy that it is possible to swipe to quickly edit, delete or add. Saves significant app searching and loading time

Some bad moments

I like the idea of the app but my events are Not showing up on my locksreen. Only sometimes they pop up but I cant controll it. Only when I have the app open on my screen and then lock the Display I can See my events on the lock screen but when i use an other app and then lock the sreen its not popping up. its not working in iOS 7.0! So please repair this bug!
doesnt work on my phone, background refresh and location service activated. only facebook support, thats poor...
iPhone 6+, iOS 8.1 Please Translate into German is often not started - must be manually restarted, please no "Lock Info" heading rows = 4 all very confusing and a waste of space, why "Location Services"?
The App is often not started, must be manually restarted, If someone buy an app this should also permanently. Please no „Lock Info“ heading rows = 4 all very confusing and a waste of space. Please translate into german! thank you
this App doesnt run on my iPhone IOS 9.1, and therefore 2,99€
Works sometimes, sometimes not. Not only when the location service is on. I do not recommend this app !
