Below you will find the history of changes in AutoLock for the Palm OS.

REPORT ALL BUGS TO support@catamount.com

Changes in 5.1

• Enhancement: "Manual Lock" button temporarily overrides your AutoLock delay setting so they next power on requires the PIN
• Security enhancement: require a PIN after all restarts regardless of delay settings
• Bug fix: security hole patched
• Bug fix: pressing a hard button turns on Palm OS device, opens pin screen, accepts valid pin, then the hard button action is performed
• Bug fix: trial period reset so users who tried old versions can try the new version for another 30 days

Changes in 5.0

• New Scramble Buttons feature rearranged the buttons on the PIN pad each time you enter your PIN. This increases security and reduces wear on your screen by evenly distributing where taps occur on the screen.
• Better compatibility with newer Palm devices. (Works on the Kyocera phones.)

Changes in 4.2

• Fixed bug which caused Palm Tungstens to open AutoLock's Preferences each time user entered PIN.
• This fix, might, fix the problem AutoLock not working on the Kyrocera phones.

Changes in 4.1

• Added support for Palm m100 series by adding "Override App" picker users can select the Application Launcher as the override app instead of the default Prefs application.

Changes in 4.0

• Input PIN via keyboard
• Input PIN via hard buttons
• Input PIN via Graffiti
• Info line defaults to "If found call Hardy @ 802.372.9512" on the initial installation. One of my friends lost their Palm the same day I beamed version 3.7 of AutoLock to him and he didn't fill out the info line yet. The default info line with my information will at the very least prompt you to change it to whatever you want.

Changes in 3.7

• Prompt for PIN to change settings on Autolock's pref screen
• Added button to access System Prefs
• Save screen when opening AutoLock and then restore screen - this fixes the screen refresh problem in most programs.
• Opens the Address book if not running on Palm 3.5 or greater - allows AutoLock to be deleted on pre-3.5 systems.

Changes in 3.6

• Fixed bug that caused alarm dialogs to not be drawn correctly after waking the Palm.
• Fixed Once a Day bug that caused AutoLock to ask for the PIN when it wasn't required.
• Increased info line to 60 characters.
• Keypad buttons are larger to make pressing them easier.

Changes in 3.5.3

• Fixed problem that caused conflicts with HackMaster
• Fixed problem that causes conflict with Silver
• Tried to reduce amount of memory used
