Locktopus
Sorry if this is in the wrong place!
Do any of you have Lockopus installed? And if so, are you experiencing this problem:
I have locked my "default apple" Text Message App with Loctopus, if I try to send a text message,the lock works great (asks for password). However, when I receive a text message, from lock screen or unlocked screen, it allows me to reply, and then takes me directly into the text message, bypassing the Locktopus lock!!!
Anyone else??? Ideas??

I think that is a known issue. Dont know whether it is being worked on or not though.

Yeah that's one of the reasons I don't use locktopus. It seems to only block the app icon. If I remember correctly anything that bypasses you actually tapping the app will get you into it. Alerts and I believe even a spotlight search gets around it. I recommend lockdown. Much better.

Yeah, I had been using the free lockdown for years, but when the 4.0 firmware came out and they weren't updated, I went ahead and bought the loctopus, seemed like an awesome app, till now! Thanks for the input!

Lockdown has the same problem when using proswitcher. The only one I know that works 100% and is locked every possible way is advlock. That was my fav but it doesn't support ios4. It has a lot of features but It also cost like $10. Still worth it IMO, I tested all of them and that's the only one that locks apps on all angles.

Well I just went ahead and purchased the new, Lockdown Pro through Cydia; and it did the same thing. As soon as I uninstalled iRealSMS (trouble shooting tactic), my problem was resolved; I no longer have that issue anymore. (iRealSMS was the evil doer
)
I've always liked Lockdown, been a fan since they first came out with it long ago. The only reason I purchased Loctopus was because Lockdown Pro did not exist for iOs 4 at the time; so in short, I'm happy again!
Thanks for all the input, its much appreciated!
