iPhone Android Lock

iPhone has a standard passcode lock feature that allow users to lock their phones with a 4-digit pin code. It’s handy for keeping unwanted individuals from accessing your phone.

Recently, I learned there’s a third-party application that emulates the graphical dot-to-dot style lock on Android-based phones. The Android lock system uses a series of nine dots in a 3×3 square where you need to replicate a pre-set pattern to unlock the phone. Unfortunately, this functionality can only be loaded onto iPhones that have been jailbroken.

You can install this app through Cydia and configure your graphical passcode by going to Setting → AndroidLock to set the pattern. The pattern must use four or more dots.

If you forgot your passcode, follow this trick to unlock and reinstall:

  1. Call your iPhone.
  2. Answer and tap on the Home button while in call.
  3. Now you are at the home screen.
  4. Use Cydia to uninstall and reinstall the app.
