I'd like to have a key pad password entry on my Android phone and while I think I'm OK with coding the app, I have no idea how to get it to run instead of the "swipe to unlock".

Re: An iOs style lock screen on Android
If an app can take over the role of that critical security feature it would be a big in the OS.
Samsungs have a keypad option in the Display settings; I'd always thought this was a standard Android feature, no?

Re: An iOs style lock screen on Android
Right, setting a PIN is a standard feature on all Android devices, it's a system setting. There's no way an app can intercept the lockscreen, though some widgets can add features to it.
