Picture Password Lockscreen allows you to unlock your phone by drawing gestures such as points, lines, and circles on your chosen images. It frees users from the traditional and less secure unlock methods because there are close to an infinite number of combination of gestures. It provides an effective layer of protection against the two most common methods of illegal access gaining to a device- brute-force password hacking and shoulder-surfing.
Forget PIN codes or patterns, you can now draw points, lines, and/or circles to unlock your phone.
To setup, select the background image and draw the gestures. To unlock, draw the saved gestures on the lockscreen.

Will this app work on devices with enterprise accounts that require a pin, etc.? I'm guessing no, but I'm hoping it's yes as there aren't any disclaimers.

There is an option to not override the stock Android lockscreen so Picture Password will display after the stock lockscreen. Android requires Secure lockscreen (PIN, passcode etc.) if you have enterprise or VPN set up

forgive me ignorance but how do i install as system app? copy to /system/app and open app from there?
Hey, kevdliu, I really like what you have going here. I have a suggestion that will really put this over the top. If you could have a series of pictures cycle while you made gestures, confirming each gesture. Think of a image of a traffic light, it starts with a red light, then you make the first gesture and it goes yellow, and then the second makes it go green unlocking the phone. Anyways, good luck with the app.

Easy way is to use titanium backup
and convert to system app. Manual way is to copy com.twinblade.picturepassword.apk to system/app and reboot

IDK if this is just me, but I keep having an issue where the image I am drawing on shows up very small in the center of an otherwise black screen. IDK if this might be a Jelly Bean issue (OP's screenshots looked like ICS). In addition, I am running a CM10 nightly, so there could be an issue there. Still, I thought you should be aware of the glitch (I can send screenshots if you want). Awesome to see someone bring this to Android; I am interested to see how it progresses.
Nice! Really like this
One thing I'm missing is that I would like to disable it from Tasker..
When I'm at home I don't have any security lock screen..
Thanx!

Can't find com.twinblade.picturepassword.apk even with ES Explorer Search.
Can you explain how to do it with TitaniumBackup exactly, must I have a Pro version?
Thanks in advance.
Really nice job, but I have an idea!
Hello. I want to tell app is great, but theres one thing that should(in my opion) added to configuration. I mean, when we run app, we have to set wallpaper, gestures, but theres no option to set backup PIN, and if somebody make a mistake or do something to quick, and didnt set PIN code in preferences may lost control above device Let me know, what You think about it!
StatusBar expand on SGS3
Hi,
In preferences I have selected 'Disable Status Bar Expand'.
But it is still possible to expand the the status bar at the lockscreen.
My Device:
Samsung Galaxy S3 (international version) with Android 4.0.4, stock, not rooted.
Screenshots:

I like the app ! Good work !
works beautifully on my S3...thank you for this...definitely worth donating for future development
Looks really good so far!
If those 2 features get added, I will gladly pay for the Pro version:
1. Record a custom unlock pattern with taps, lines and circles (= no limit to just 1 tap, 1 line and 1 circle)
2. Tasker integration to toggle the lockscreen on and off.
Keep up the good work! :good:
Excellent
Nice work. I really like not having to have sliders and buttons on my lockscreen.

Hi guys, if you have installed it, please update it to the latest version.
I have fixed some issues for weather info display (floating button).
Multidialer is a complete dialer with various features thinked for improve your calls.
There are a lot of great features, for example:
- Suggestions and t9 algorithm;
- Themes;
- Notification widgets;
- Home screen dialer widget (only plus) and 3 different starred in android widget;
- Left slider with contact list (and pictures);
- Right slider drawer with call logs;
- Top slider with settings (inspired by material design);
- Long click on a contact for a quick preview, then click on the pictures for the contact sheet;
- Shortcuts on the numbers;
- Send sms;
- Adaptive UI, that change if you are in multiwindow mode or normal mode (read after about this samsung's feature);
- Automathic call when you put the phone near your ear.
- 4 gestures over the numeric keypad, with different effects if the text field is empty or full;
- Air gestures, control your phone without touching the screen (worked on some samsung devices);
- Others (check the FAQ menu for the complete list of features and instructions).
The interface is designed for have these functions at your fingertips, with a minimal modern graphic style! Also, the style is highly customizable thanks to a lot of themes and the various options.
*****
This app is also designed for samsung devices that support samsung's multiwindow feature (as galaxy s4, s3, note, note 2, note 3...). In some samsung devices you cannot use the dialer in multiwindow mode. With this app you can use the dialer and another app (like browser, playstore, etc...) at the same time! Thanks to the adaptive ui feature, when you are in multiwndow mode the interface change for improve comfort!
Attention: when you make a call you must use the standard interface. Is impossible to replace it (without root). Is a the way used by system for fired calls. You can see it when push the phone icon in every dialer app. Usually this interface doesn't support multiwindow, so this dialer work in multiwindow, but when you starting a call, you'll see the interface in fullscreen. Unfortunatly I cannot do anything for this, is not an issue.
What is samsung multiwindow? It is a great feature for multitasking. Through this, you can split screen in two parts, in order to use 2 apps at the same time! for enable it (depends if your device has this feature) you must check the
toggle "multiwindow", then push and hold back button. You'll see a sidebar that contains all the app that support multiwindow mode. Drag and drop 2 apps from this to the screen and enjoy multitasking!
