Is there an App to Manually, Fully Pin-Lock Screen?

I always carry my phone in my pocket and the default drag-to-unlock screen isn't cutting it (answering calls in my pocket, unlocking itself). However, I don't want to always have to enter a pin to unlock my phone, only when I'm going to be biking with it in my pocket (which is at least twice a day). What I would like to see is an app that I can put on my taskbar that I could press once to put the phone in a true locked state that requires a password to unlock. I don't want it to be able to answer calls and I don't want it accidentally dialing emergency numbers either (this isn't a problem if the app allows sliding out the keyboard to access emergency numbers without a password). After the password has been entered, the app doesn't lock the screen again until it is manually loaded.
Unless I'm missing something, the default screen locking options on the Veer (currently running webOS 2.1.2) can not be used in this way. Every time I want to turn the pin lock back on, I have to load the app, scroll down to the locking section, enter a pin to use, and then reenter the pin to use, which of course is way more time-consuming than just hitting a single button that retains your password.
I know the seemingly obvious solution is to face the screen out in my pocket instead of toward my leg, but I've always put it screen-side facing in to protect the screen since I don't use a case. An ideal solution for me would be an app-based one.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Is there an app that shows on your locked screen what time the auto-lock was activated...so you know if anyone has looked at your phone?

Id like an app that shows what time your iphone was locked, so you know if anyone has looked at your phone while you've left it, say on a desk at work?

If your location on the map is off press the MENU button (lower left corner of your phone). Then when the next screen appears Touch "my location" and it will move the your blue colored location ICON to your current location.
Also, you can touch the tower ICON to see the tower's SSID, SID, and Received signal strength. WIKI has good definitions for these acronyms. If you go to CELLS (top of screen) you can also see the RSSI and the overview shows the signal strength in %.

IMac Mavericks App Store Download Recycle on Lock Screen?

Hello.
I've been searching for as precise a description of my issue as I could find, but haven't found it. So, I'm putting it here for commiseration and, mostly, help.
Brand new iMac, running Mavericks. In the App Store, clicked "Purchases." Started to download (via Wifi) what's needed. One or two of the smaller apps downloaded fine, but the larger ones (e.g. GarageBand, Keynote, and Final Cut Pro) kept "recyling," by which I mean, they would get a quarter or a third of the way done, then go right back to zero. AppleCare seemed to help by saying "It's really just downloading the larger applications in packets, so it's probably just going back to get the next packet and, when it does, it goes back to zero."). After doing a few things they suggested, it seemed to work a bit better, but that was not, in fact, the case.
This morning, our Administrator (it's a corporate machine) went around our security by connecting my hard-wired to ethernet. The next larger app or two downloaded fine, but when I got to Final Cut, the same problem, again. Thinking the download may be recycling (going back to zero) on (or just before) lock screen, I disabled the lock screen password protection. Final Cut Pro is now about to finally finish downloading, all at once. There were no "recycling to get packets" or any other interruption of the process.
Question:
Will app store downloads be interrupted when the computer goes to lock screen? This seems to be the case. If this is, in fact, true, what can I do to fix this? I'd prefer not to have to disable the lock screen each time I wish to download a large file. Seems kind of bogus, no?
Also, FYI, bluetooth is off.

Music App... Shuffle, lock screen ect.

A whole bunch of items that I think apple really screwed up with the release of ios7.
1) What happened to shuffle? They changed the icon which is confusing in items to use. When you want to shuffle a certain album by an artist you simply cannot. It will shuffle every song by the artist. I noticed recently itunes starting doing this as well.
2) Album organization. It used to be simple and easy to use. Artist>Album>Songs. It is still this format, but to get to a certain album you have to go through every song of the album before it. Extremely annoying to navigate and painful to the eyes. Another feature i have no idea why they changed.
3) Music app from the lock screen. Now that the whole screen swips to unlock, the music controls move as well. Which make its difficult to change the volume, ski tracks difficult as the entire screen moves thinking you are trying to unlock the phone.
4) Controls all at the bottom when unlocked. They moves shuffle, repeat, and track scrolling down to the bottom for some reason. Which crams every button in a tight space making it very easy to hit the wrong button.

it works fine on my phone. try to check access Settings- Control center - make sure Access on Lock Screen and Access within Apps are On. while on lockscreen mode, try swiping up from the bottom of the screen to view control center. try to play a song, then swipe it down to hide the control center. u will see there music playing while on the lockscreen and can pause it from there.. hope this will help.

My phone is "disabled" although there is no timer showing on the lock screen.

My phone was disabled this afternoon, It has shown the "iPhone is disabled" screen since i first got the password wrong, although there has been no timer present on the screen. I can still receive calls and texts i just cant unlock my phone. Is there any way I can find out how long it will be until my phone is back working? And if so how do i fix it ?
Please not system restore as I really dont want to lose all my data..
Please please please help.

I'm afraid there is no option than restoring the phone. If you have a backup in iTunes or iCloud, then your can restore it.

Is there an app for video playback on external screen from ipad mini which avoids mirroring?

I want to play fullscreen video from ipad mini to external screens with a clean look and without without showing playback controls etc. I need to be able to play, pause, change the order of video tracks without affecting the external display as it's for playback of video backing tracks for a music show.
Does anybody know of any apps which do this? I'm looking at Portfolio for iPad at the moment which looks promising.

No.

Camera App Won't Launch from Lock Screen after update

After updating to ios 8 and then 8.1 my camera app will not launch from the lockscreen. When I swipe up on the camera app I see my home screen wallpaper until I press the home button or the lock button.

Hey morpeo,
Thanks for the question. Let’s see if we can isolate the issue further. To do so, try restarting/resetting your device:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the issue persists after a restart, let’s see if we can isolate to software or hardware by backing up and restoring your device as new:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
Thanks,

The camera app doesn't start from lock screen

One of the new features in IOS 5 is the ability to start the camera from teh lock screen. However, my phone doesn't allow this. Was this function built into the final release version of IOS 5?

This feature is not working on my iPad 2. When I double-click the Home button--in lock-screen position-- the iPod features appear at the top of my screen, as they always have. The photostream icon remains in place to the right of my Home screen slide lock. No camera icon comes up anywhere. I have photostream set to off and tried switching it to on, to see if this would make a difference; it does not. I'm very computer and device-literate. The problem isn't in the way I'm double-clicking the Home button. This feature is definitely not working on my iPad 2.

Why is there sometimes an envelope icon on my lock screen?

I have an iPhone 6. On the lock screen, on the bottom left hand corner, is, from time to time, an envelope icon. What is this for?

Are there any apps that install animated lock screens without jail breaking my iPhone 5?

Are there any apps that can install animated lock screens without jail breaking the iPhone 5?

I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

Wouldn't it be nice that I could have the choice of which application appears in the lock screen instead of a fixed camera app?

Well, as I stated in my question, I would like to have a choice of which app to put into the lock screen as a short cut, you know each one of us has different kind of needs. And I just don't want to jailbreak my phone, coz don't get me wrong, I LOVE my iPhone 4!

We are all iphone users just like you.
