Cool idea! I would try it if I had an Android phone.

Seems a little weird to me to make the lock screen interactive, though. If there are all sorts of things you can do on the lock screen, when does the lock screen cease to be a lock screen, and when does it become some new layer of limited interactivity?

Hi jpasden, thanks for taking a look and sorry we couldnt offer a solution for your operating system.

We realise that content on the lockscreen might seem counterintuitive, but we view mobile more in terms of consumption/production than in terms of on/off.

Traditional lock screens serve as a barrier between on and off while Frontpage offers a choice between production and consumption. The lockscreen is a great space for consuming content because its highly accessible. Its a bad place for production because it lacks security (obviously). By viewing mobile this way keeping the two separate, we believe we can greatly improve your mobile user experience.
