Totally worth it (still)!

By Linsiris (Pcmac user)

So, I finally decided to sit down and check what was going up with MacID. Updated the mac App and got the message about the changes...I also noticed I missed my "promo" window (or something) because I'm not getting a discount, but guess what? I don't care! I hit the purchase button and set everything up in like 2 mins it was a breeze to set up and it's so snappy! This is one of those apps that you just want to keep supporting, such a great job, the tap to unlock has been my unlocking option since I got this app. And now with Apple watch even easier. Congratulations to the dev for getting the app accepted, Nevermind the name change, your good work speaks volumes!! Sometimes we just have to embrace the changes. Keep it up you totally deserve it and thank you for this great app!
Is not usable

By quietkey7 (Pcmac user)

Technically the product does work in that if you connect it all up, if when you walk away you don’t walk more than about 20 feet it will lock your Mac. And if you didn’t walk more than 20 feet away, when you come back it will unlock it. So it does what it says it will. However, if you walk more than 20 some feet away from your Mac, which is sort of pretty normal behavior, when you come back it will have lost connectivity between the phone and Mac and simply will not unlock the Mac. To get it to work you have to go sign back in to the app on the Mac, have it forget your phone, reconnect to your phone, and then don’t ever walk away. Which sort of defeats the purpose of the app. So it does work, as long as you never leave your Mac. The premise is fantastic, the execution has some good ideas, it just lacks the ability to actually work. It needs to have a wake-up mode like you do when you take a Bluetooth mouse out of range, and then back in range.
Does Not Work.

By lBOGARTl (Pcmac user)

this app simply does not do what it claims to do. It does unlock your computer, but you have to reconnect it every time you get out of Bluetooth range. This obviously defeats the purpose of the app. You also have to forget your device and pair it again each time it loses the connection. I have the iMac Pro, iPhone X, and the latest software versions, so there can be no out-of-date compatibility problems. Bluetooth on all my devices works flawlessly on everything else. I guess this app deserves the one star for having a good idea, but this app is a complete fail. Update: Still no contact from the developer. Still no update for the apps to make it work. I suspect the positive reviews are fake. This app does not perform as described. As much as I want this to work, I give up. I have tried for months. Delete.
Not ready for prime time

By Hugobed (Pcmac user)

I have tried to like this app but the same problems keep coming up, even with the new version: Everything works great until I leave my MacBook Pro (late 2012) unattended for say a few hours. As soon as I leave my home and then come back a few hours later the app says “No computer detected” or something like that. And on top of that my bluetooth is dead on my MacBook Pro and I then have to reset my bluetooth preferences and of course my Mac. It’s just not practical to use this app unless you are next to your computer all day. And constantly needing to restart your computer is a deal killer. I really wish someone could come up with an app like this that actually works.
