Unlock only after interaction #52

Open xoniq opened 3 years ago

I lock te machine manually (otherwise it sometimes lock and unlock automatically), but when I lock it manually, it often jumps back on when I walk away.

Is it possible to add some type of interaction? Like pressing any button (which normally shows the password screen), and only then auto unlock when the phone is near?

I think that would make it way more stable for me to avoid accidental unlocks.

I think that behavior is when "Wake on Proximity" option is on. Also, "Unlock Now" of BLEUnlock may help when you manually lock your machine.

I often have the same issue and 'Wake on proximity' is unchecked. It is in 'Passive mode' if that makes a difference to this behaviour.

I noticed in the log some 'intruded 0' messages. They seem to happen when the Mac's screen light up again. Also the value of zero doesn't make sense. So putting this here as that may give you a hint as the possible cause of this behaviour.
