Better Feedback For Unlock Attempts #98

Closed corveroth closed 10 years ago

corveroth commented 10 years ago

Rather than, or in addition to, the provided stickers, I would like the option to render my phone's NFC heat-map (as seen in NFC Ring Control) as a background for the lock screen.

Additionally, any non-aural feedback for unsuccessful ring reads would be very useful. In fact, any additional feedback for the unlock process (is there such a thing as "partial" or "weak" detection of a tag that would hint when the ring was near?) would be an improvement.

I think the security of the ring comes from the relatively hard-to-duplicate identity of the physical object - revealing the detection location seems like an acceptable compromise for the sake of usability (and showing it on-screen is hardly any worse than affixing a sticker!).

Agreed on heatmap

The lockscreen wallpaper can be set. save the heatmap image somewhere and set it as the background.

Volume down and power off button will do a print screen, what Ken proposes is an ideal temporary solution..
