Almost a great app

I see that Im not the only one with this issue. For my purposes it is sufficient that my mac screen lock once the Bluetooth connection is broken. That is, when I leave the house it is going to lock my machines for me. This it does very well.

It is also important that as I approach my machines they unlock. This MacID also does well.

However, on both my 2011 Mac Mini and my 2015 MacBook Pro I find that my screen will go blank at random intervals and force me to wait several seconds before I can get to the password screen to manually unlock them. This never happens on both machines at the same time and is likely more an issue with how the Mac handles Bluetooth connectivity but this is something the app needs to be able to prevent. As others have said this very much defeats the purpose of it and makes it a nonstarter.

I have reported the issue but have heard nothing from the developer after several weeks so I do not know if he is not interested or just overwhelmed. Regardless, I have had to disable the app because it makes the machines unusable.

I will definitely be willing to try it again if there is some attempt made to correct the issue. But for now it is just wasted money.
