Revision history [back]

with 1.1.0.39 i have one of the lockscreen pully shurtcuts configured to start the flashlight app. and a lockcode is set.

with 1.1.0.38/39 the shortcuts are accessible while the phone is locked. That's not a problem in first place, but when i started the flashlight app while the phone was locked, the app started before the lockcode was entered. Yes i couldn't see the ui of the flashlight app because it was covered by the screen to enter lockcode, but the led was turned on. So what ever app is launched via lockscreen shortcuts is started before the phone is unlocked. I don't think that is how it should be. Every app operating without user interaction and set up as a shortcut can be started while the phone is locked. Depending on the app this can be a security/privacy issue. (in my case anyone can empty my battery, because flashlight can be turned on but not off without lockcode)

edit: like said by g7, i don't suggest to disable those shortcuts again while phone is locked. my suggestion is to keep the shortcuts enabled and start the apps after the lockcode was verified

edit2:

the problem is NOT the flashlight app, like i said the problem is to start the apps at all. I just noticed that behavior it with the flashlight app. It could be ANY app, doing ANYTHING, for example:

• Stop/Restart AlienDalvik - anyone can close all android apps
• Any (socialnetwork/navigation) app using location - spoiling your location to google, fb, nsa, ...
• Restart phone -> your not reachable anymore
• just be creative.... creative....

If that behavior is intended, please warn users to not put critical apps in shortcuts!

Edit3 Dec. 20th: (+title edited) same behavior with 1.1.1.27

Suggestion: Add an option to settingsmenu, to choose what behavior is preferred. In some cases it can be usefull, like starting shazam/soundhound listening automatically.
