Ratings and reviews

Works great on my Sony XA2 Ultra so far. Although, it makes me put in my pin when waking up instead of accepting my fingerprint. I'll be trying to solve this on my end. Perhaps there's a work around in settings. I love that I don't have to buy a spendy proprietary case in order to get the Open/On functionality. I'm super pleased so far.

I was hoping this app would do 2 things - turn off my screen when I close my flip cover and turn my screen on when I open the flip cover. I guess my expectations were unrealistically high. A message to developer about this went unanswered. Sigh ... Guess I am looking for another flip cover app.

Works fine on my oneplus nord. But overrides the Fingerprint. When you open the cover, the finger print option is disabled. Only pattern lock is available. May work with fingerprint on back side. But for me, it's on screen fingerprint option, getting disabled. Showing Admin lock which is mandatory to turn on the app. I have uninstalled.
