10 lock screen replacement apps for your Android smartphone

Isn't it awesome how customizable Android is compared to anything else out there? Many elements of the platform can be tweaked, ranging from under-the-hood performance adjustments to visual and user interface modifications. This post is all about the latter, bringing you 10 apps that will replace the stock lock screen on your Android smartphone. Why would anyone want to do that? Well, keep in mind that not all Android smarthphones are made equal. Many come with a lock screen provided by the manufacturer, and while some custom lock screens work fine, others aren't all that great. But these third-party lock screen replacement are among the best ones available in the Play Store. Chances are that if you aren't happy with the lock screen on your Android smartphone, a better alternative will be listed below.
1. Active Lockscreen
Active Lockscreen provides quick, single-swipe access to essential apps, such as the dialer, the camera, and the email client. There are shortcuts to your recently contacted numbers and recently used applications as well. The app offers multiple themes to choose from.

2. Go Locker
From the same fine folks who brought us Go Launcher comes Go Locker – a lock screen replacement with shortcuts to the call log, the messaging app, and media player quick controls. Current weather conditions can be displayed as well. Security protection with pin or pattern is supported. Additional themes for Go Locker are available from the Play Store.

3. MagicLocker
We bring you one of the most downloaded lock screen replacement app on Google Play, with support for themes, shortcuts, image customization, and what not. Your security pattern should also work even with MagicLocker enabled.

4. Holo Locker
Holo Locker is a lock screen replacement with a minimalist, stock-ish look and feel. But at the same time, it does have several adjustments that you can tweak. For example, the status bar can be hidden or disabled while the text color can be changed. The paid version of the app has a counter for your unread emails and text messages and would let you change the background image as well.

5. MXLock
And here's one more lock screen replacement app offering a wide variety of cute and colorful themes to select from. Naturally, it lets you activate the phone, SMS, and Camera apps without unlocking your device.
Download:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neomtel.mxlock
6. WidgetLocker Lockscreen
Can you guess what WidgetLocker Lockscreen offers to stand out? Yup, lock screen widgets. Actually, this Android app supported that before it was even cool. Shortcuts to apps of the user's choice can also be placed there for convenience.
Download:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker
7. Windows 8 Lock Screen
As the name implies, this app is meant to mimic the lock screen found on Windows-based smartphones. It displays the current date and time, along with counters for unread texts and missed calls. The background may be made transparent, in case the user wants to.
8. C Locker
Access your apps quickly with this versatile lock screen. It is functional, good-looking, and its paid version has a number of handy features, such as RSS feed support, listing of Calendar events, reminders and more. The volume rocker can be set to skip or rewind songs playing in the music player instead of just adjusting the volume.
Download:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ccs.lockscreen
9. Sparky
What's cool about Sparky is that it offers a good selection of beautifully drawn lock screens, with shortcuts to frequently used apps and counters for missed events. But although the app will make your lock screen much prettier, it will not work with your pattern lock.
Download:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sparkymobile.sparkylockscreenlite
10. Joy Locker
Last but not least, here's a lock screen replacement solution by the Global Animation team. The best thing about it is that there are many themes available from its library , designed by talented artists. The amazing thing is that you can play many funny games to find out the how to unlock your mobile screen.

5 Best Android lock screen apps P 1/2

Android smartphones allow you to customize nearly everything to fit individual needs and preferences. This includes the lock screen too. Today we’ll show the best Android lock screen replacement apps that have impressive designs and valuable features that will have you getting more out of your lock screen.

Lock screen apps offer an easy way to personalize your Android phone or tablet.
1. Echo Notification Lockscreen
Google Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doublelabs.androscreen.echo&hl=en
If you're looking for a lightweight app that provides all the essentials right from the get-go, then Echo Notification Lockscreen will likely float your boat. The app displays messages, missed calls and other types of notifications straight from the lock screen, which you can then open by tapping, or dismiss by swiping to the left. Two cool things about the app: you get a camera shortcut to snap some quick photos and it won’t suck your battery dry either. And Echo Notification is also free!
Echo Notification Lockscreen provides you with messages and missed calls on your lock screen.
2. Cover - the smart lock screen
Google Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coverscreen.cover&hl=en
Cover brings context-based information to the lock screen, meaning the right content and settings at the right time. This is reminiscent of Google Now and for the most part works quite similarly. By entering your home address and workplace, the lock screen will know when to switch between private and work mode. Depending on the situation, it shows matching apps as shortcuts. This works because the launcher is capable of learning and adapts to particular usage patterns. In addition to being able to automatically switch between settings and shortcuts, Cover also offers simplified access to recently used apps by swiping downwards from the top screen border.
Cover is in open beta phase and can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store. We already tested the lock screen two months ago and found that even then it made a very good and well-made impression.
Cover offers context-based apps on your Android lock screen to match your habits.
3. Ubuntu Lockscreen
Google Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rotaryheart.ubuntu.lock.screen&hl=en
There had been talks about a mobile operating system from Ubuntu called Ubuntu Touch, but it never really caught on. If you still want at least a tiny hint of Ubuntu on your smartphone, you can install the Ubuntu Lockscreen. It has a ring menu that will display notifications, and by swiping from top to bottom, you’ll see date, time and battery status.
Swiping from right to left presents shortcuts to apps which can be set up by the user individually beforehand. On request, a music player can be displayed on the lock screen, since the security options are currently only a password or PIN. So, even when swiping from left to right, the display will remain unlocked. The Ubuntu Lockscreen can be downloaded from the Google Play Store and is free.
Get a taste of Ubuntu with Ubuntu Lock Screen.
4. UnlockYourBrain - vocabulary and math training
Google Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.unlockyourbrain&hl=en
On average, we’ll look at our smartphones about 80 times a day. Wouldn’t it make sense to combine these almost subconscious compulsions with something meaningful? UnlockYourBrain is a lockscreen alternative made to keep your brain fit by having you solve math problems and do some vocabulary training.
The vocabulary or math exercises loaded onto the lock screen can naturally be skipped in case you get stumped. The potential found in this lock screen is great though. Repetition is the mother of retention and by constantly viewing vocabulary and calculation methods, this will slowly but surely start to sink in, keeping your brain from turning into mush.
UnlockYourBrain is free and ad-supported, available in the Google Play Store. The premium version can be bought as in-app purchases in various packages.
UnlockYourBrain makes you smarter all while unlocking your phone.
5. DashClock widget
Google Play Store Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.nurik.roman.dashclock&hl=en
The easiest and most popular way to set up a lock screen is with the use of widgets. One of the most popular in this genre is DashClock Widget because it not only supports extensions but is also be extensively customizable. The widget, which is displayed next to the clock, can be a calendar, appointments, unread messages or when using supported apps, the weather for example.
DashClock Widget can be downloaded for free in the Google Play Store. Setting up and searching for matching extensions can be fun but could also take some time to complete thanks to a huge array of extensions to choose from. You can take a look at an overview in the Play Store by simply searching for the term "DashClock".

All About MIUI 12

MIUI 12 is the newest update coming to many Xiaomi phones in 2020. This update brings several new UI changes to the OS, that have big improvements over the previous MIUI 11. In this thread, I’ll go over some of the new features in MIUI 12 and how I use them.
Visual Updates
MIUI 12 has a lot of updates to the user interface, and plenty of new features to explore. You’re going to notice a big difference in the way your phone visualizes data. When you’re checking your battery usage, storage data, about the phone section, or any of the many settings menus, you’ll have access to detailed and clean data visuals.
Another visually pleasing addition in MIUI 12 is the new live Wallpapers called Super Wallpapers which use animated satellite imagery sourced provided by NASA. The Super Wallpapers bind the user experience by a connected movement across different sections of MIUI 12, from the always-on display to the homescreen.

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is a list of some of the best new UI features in MIUI 12:
New Design and animations
Visual representation of data
Dark Mode
Super Wallpapers
Functionality Updates
Some other new features in MIUI 12 include the new app drawer which automatically classifies apps in different categories – just like the POCO Launcher – making the sorting of apps much easier. MIUI 12 also brings the very useful floating windows, because who doesn’t like to scroll through Twitter while watching a live webinar or use two social media apps at once.
The new app drawer can be activated by going to settings > Home screen > Home screen and then selecting With App drawer.
Use the tabs at the top of the app drawer to see different apps in specific categories. I have found this feature so helpful in finding apps that I'm looking for. Some apps have very similar icons, which make them easy to miss when I'm scrolling through my drawers looking for what I want. Now it's much easier with the ability to tap "communications" and quickly be able to find discord, snapchat, and messaging all on the same page. It saves time and is a big improvement over MIUI 11.
Ultra battery saver is a new aggressive power saver mode that unlocks a much longer battery life for your Xiaomi phone. To enable this mode, go to settings > Battery & performance and toggle Ultra battery saver.
While this option is on, your phone will restrict the most power-consuming apps features and decrease your device's performance. You'll be left with basic functionality like SMS, network connection, and calls. This new mode has a huge impact on the amount of time you can squeeze out of a low battery.
One of the design elements that can be seen in a completely new avatar in MIUI 12 is the new Control center. The Control center has been isolated from the notifications panel and replaces the traditional quick settings tiles we see in Android as well as in previously released versions of MIUI. You can access the notifications by swiping down from the left side of the display’s upper edge whereas the Control center can be opened by swiping down from the right side of the display.
The Control center features a grid of quick setting shortcuts with the most important ones such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and mobile data shown in the form of rounded rectangular buttons with a tiny arrow in the bottom corner which can be used to show available Wi-Fi connections or Bluetooth devices on an overlay card. Another nifty addition is the new slider for brightness which is now placed in the center of the control center and is relatively more easily accessible than before, especially on phones with big displays. The Control center can be expanded by a downward swipe on the bar below the brightness slider and icons can be arranged manually based on your preferences.
MIUI 12 adds floating windows with the objective of offering the same multi-window experience as on a desktop. Supported apps can be opened in the form of floating windows that occupy only a small section of the display and can be opened on top of other apps. The Samsung Experience UI and its successor One UI have supported a similar feature called “Pop-up view” for many years now. Xiaomi’s version, on the other hand, feels much smoother and responsive, even in the beta build.

The floating windows in MIUI can be resized so you can continue working on another app in the background. To initiate a floating window, you can go to the Recents menu and tap on the Floating windows option on the top left. Alternatively, you can also launch floating windows by long-pressing on an app preview in the Recents menu and then tapping the picture-in-picture icon or by tapping on the floating window option in the Control Center.
Here is a list of some of the best new UX features in MIUI 12:
Floating Windows for multitasking
Control Center - Click here for video demo of Control Center
App Drawer
Ultra Battery Saver

Thank you to Xiaomi for providing this thread.

Would be nice if with all the focus on security and control they would give us full Smart Lock control instead of the hobbled locked to Xiaomi Bluetooth devices they have now.

Yes, I love Xiaomi!!1

Is this for real? From June to what?
Should be more specific on the timeline.

Yup. November 9th, 2020.
Stil waiting waiting waiting for Redmi Note 9 Pro Global to get Miui 12... Do you guys at Xiaomi have an allergy for the Joyeuse Global...?
Or did your coders quit their jobs?

CoverScreen OS IN ACTION:​
SNAPS OF Z FLIP 3 RUNNING CoverScreen OS:​
THE ORIGIN STORY:​​Been working on this project since the original Z Flip, but unfortunately had to suspend development due to cracked screen (that countless folding/unfolding while testing.)
The release of Z Flip 3 with a bigger cover screen was enough incentive for me to be excited about the project once again but unfortunately I again hit a bottleneck as the screen started bleeding this streak of green light right at the center and sometimes whole of second half.
Fearing a cracked screen once again, I had suspended the development yet again… but… that cute little cover screen… here we are.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM:
DOWNLOAD:​After thousands of unfolding/unfolding, happy to announce that, beta version of CoverScreen OS is now available for open testing on Google Play store!

Hi!
Working on A12?
Thanks for your work!

Excellent look forward to trying out on app on my zflp3. Does it work with one UI 4.0?

Hey guys! I am glad to report that, CoverScreen OS supports One UI 4.0!

This is pretty awesome. When you get notifications, can you actually type full replies from the cover instead of having to open or select from a few auto replies? Does dismissing notifications as dismiss from app like stock?

Absolutely, you'll be able to use Voice Keyboard to type in your replies, infact, auto-replies isn't implemented yet.
You can see it in action at 01:00:

Yeah that's voice to text, but looks like no actual just typing only yet?

This is very impressive, great work!

I definitely looking forward to the quick setting tiles. I could never understand why Samsung gave us the sound tile only.
m.

Nice! Gonna love it!

Great news! Thanks for the hard work. Most interesting news this year

Is it mandatory to disable any lock screen to make this work?

This is great. Looking forward. Nice work and thanks for making Flip 3 even better.

You can see in the video the long press to unlock via bixby + fingerprint is being used. Same method you can use for SamSprung launcher when using a lockscreen.

Didnt get the invite/apk and i filled out the app. Would love to try this.

Also sent you a pm about contribution.

I am testing it right now and its supposed to be buggy but I am already loving it. I'll keep providing feedback here.
One main issue is that the app drawer is not scrolling. I can't open any other app other than the first two rows.

Yes, as long as you have Google Play Services installed, do you have it?

am i doing something wrong here, cover screen appears to work and I can see all my apps, then crashes and the screen goes black and back to oppos cover screen default

I had the same issue on my Z flip 4, never found out why. I was paying a monthly subscription for full access of a useless app (I sold the flip 4).
The only reason I would buy the N2 flip is Coverscreen OS, I know it's early release with bugs, but the bug you mentionned could be a deal breaker for me...

Hi not sure how to post on here but I've got the oppo find n2 flip and cover screen os and paid for the extra but the rotation doesn't work on video apps I've tried lock rotation but doesn't change anything all I get is the picture moves to middle of screen still in portrait mode then goes back to normal portrait when phone is moved back from horizontal orientation can anyone help me here as of what to do to get this working

Hi! Which App are you trying? If you set the rotation to landscape, open YouTube, play a video, it should play.
However, if you're talking about real sensor based 'auto-rotation', it is yet to be implemented, will be available soon!

I am not sure I understand the issue, I just played YouTube in landscape, it's working fine. Could you please send me a video clip of the issue?

Hi ! I'm using your app on my Find n2 flip, I have questions :
- Phone closed, when i'm using fingerprint unlock, CSOS start in a sec. When i'm using face unlock, I have to swipe the screen in order to activate CSOS. Why ?
- When I open the CSOS drawer on cover screen, then swipe right to go back to home screen, the screen turns off. Is it part of your software ?
- Oppo toggle screen (from top) is pretty good, I wish we have an option to disable CSOS toggle screen because i'm not using it. Can you implement this option ?
- The back gesture from top is quite difficult when using a case, could you make the back area larger ?

How do I take a clip on the fort cover screen to show what I mean YouTube works on cover screen in portrait mode but not in vertical mode it doesn't take up the whole cover screen it stays in portrait mode moves picture to middle and stays in portrait mode

Hello,
I am interested in paying for the Premium version for Oppo N2 Flip.
But there are many prices and I don't know the difference between one price and another. There is no explanation of the features involved in paying one price or another.
