About this app

Remotely and securely unlock your Windows PC using your Android’s fingerprint sensor.

For the application to work, you need to install the Fingerprint Credential Provider module on your Windows PC (Windows Vista/7/8/10), found HERE. (links not visible on phone - please use a computer to see the link under 'here')

If you've lost your PRO upgrade after reinstall, need help with setting up accounts or Wake on Lan, or for any other issue that you may encounter, please be sure to check out the F.A.Q.

The module only runs when the logon screen is active, so, in order to connect your computer, add an account, etc., simply lock your computer (Windows Key + L, or from the Start Menu).

How to use the app:
Firstly, be sure that you have installed the Windows module found at the link above.
Go to the Scan menu (making sure that your computer is on the logon screen) and pull to refresh (uses Wi-Fi) or press the add button and use the preferred method of unlocking.
Select your computer and press Save.
Now, go to the Accounts menu, tap the 3-dot menu button of the computer and then Add Account. Enter the Windows account that you want to unlock. Use the displayed name exactly as on the lockscreen (case sensitive, including the domain name if using domain account), together with the corresponding password. Scan your fingerprint and press Add.
For PRO users: to select one of the added accounts as default, tap on the 3-dot menu button then select Set As Default.
To configure a computer, tap on the 3-dot menu button of that computer.
For PRO users: to enable Wake on Lan, go to the computer's configuration menu and enable Send WoL Packet. Make sure the MAC address is correct!
You’re now all set! Go to the Unlock menu and scan your fingerprint. You should now see your computer unlocked.

Features:
• Log-into/Unlock an account
• Simple, user-friendly UI
• Secure
• Local/Microsoft/Domain* accounts support
• Light/Dark/Black (AMOLED-friendly) UI themes
• Local network/Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Tethering/USB Tethering support

* 1.2.0 version of the Windows module required. Usage: when adding an account using the Android app, simply add the full name of the account, including the domain, separated by a slash ( ‘\’ ). For example: test\account.name

PRO features:
• Ads removal
• Unlimited computers and accounts per computer
• Wake-On-Lan
• Unlock widgets
• Launcher shortcuts

Being built with security in mind, the app:
• Does not use an intermediate server – all communication is done directly with the Windows module.
• Encrypts the stored information in the user’s computer using a unique key that identifies the app installation.
• Does not store any password in the Android app.
• Can be used on a public network – all sent data is encrypted.
• Prevents attackers from also gaining access to your computer – if an attacker knows your PIN and adds his own fingerprint, the app is immediately notified and automatically invalidates its own key, which makes the stored private app information lost forever.

Be sure to allow incoming and outgoing traffic (both TCP and UDP) in your firewall for the LogonUI.exe process found in C:\Windows\System32. You will be asked at the installation if you want this done automatically for you if you are using Windows Firewall.

Please check the F.A.Q. for more troubleshooting tips and questions or send me an email if you have any questions regarding the app.

Ratings and reviews

Sorry I cannot get the app to work as intended. Can't unlock my pc using my fingerprint. It just says incorrect user name and password after I set up the account on the app. Is there anyone that can reach out to me to troubleshoot this. I have tried it all and cannot get the app to work. I even paid for it thinking that's where the mistake was and with no avail. Thanks!

This is so much easier than Samsung Flow which requires me to use bluetooth. Because this is WiFi/Network based, it's much better. I will admit setting this up took a bit because it's confusing in some parts. I added my account info, but when I tried to use my fingerprint scanner, it said no default account selected. Then I realized under the username you have to press and hold, it will then say (Selected). Now the fingerprint scanner works. But then when I used it, it would say I logged in on the phone, but my PC didn't do anything. I was using my MS account credentials, apparently that is incorrect. You must enter the name that is displayed on the logon on screen. In my case it's Xzavier Carsten Omyda. I then used my MS account password. Now the app works perfectly!

This is a great piece of software for unlocking your devices if they don't have a fingerprint reader or if you need to remotely unlock the device. I did get the pro edition for multiple device usage and would love to see bluetooth support, wake up notifications, and computer locking among the possible features. My only issue currently is I wish that it was easier to select what device you want to unlock. Currently it's Menu>My Accounts>Tap which account. I'd love to simply swipe which account on the Unlock screen with perhaps some indicators for those of us that do have multiple devices. Aside from that small gripe, no complaints.
