Excellent! Walk into my Home Office and both MacBook Pro 2012 and iMac 2015 on macOS High Sierra both wake up instantly. Definitely a great improvement on version 2! Delighted!

Fails after every single OS update

Upgraded to Mojave and Mac is no longer connected with iPhone X. Pairing again shows "name not provided by system". Reset Bluetooth preferences, deleted and re-installed Mac and Phone apps but the same thing. Reset All Preferences and now Tap to Unlock function is disabled. So now I cant unlock from phone nor watch and not even tap. What can I do?

Works as expected

Was a little weary as there hasn’t been a recent update and some of the other solutions found no longer seem to be available. Happy to report this has been working great with my M2 Mac mini and paired with the remote pro app does everything I need. Hope the dev continues to update as needed, made me a happy customer

Sonoma issues on Intel Mac

Used to work to automatically wake and login to my intel iMac. After Sonoma the auto wake still works but the auto login is broken. Still works great on M1 Air.

Weird issue

Worked ok for a few days but when my phone was in another room today I got logged out of my Mac ever 20 seconds. Feared a virus but it had something to do with Unloxw. Deleted and problem gone.

Useful tool but a little buggy

It can be a pain to connect to your phone. Sometimes it just won’t work, so you have to disconnect your phone, restart your mac, and pair it to your phone again, but it does work otherwise and very useful when it’s working properly.
