Re: S2U2 Vs Pocketshield

bump to Jmort...

I was a S2U2 user before jumping ship to PS. In fact jmort pointed me in that direction.

Since flashing to 6.5 and higher ROMs, I'm perfectly content with the slide lock that comes native to the 6.5. Simple, clean...pair it with Smart Lock...you're golden!

When v.2.10 came out I went back to S2U2 as the battery drain issue seems to be fixed. PS was too bland for me. If you use all the features then S2u2 isn't bloated at all. But if you are just looking for a simple lock program then PS would probably be better suited for you.

I'm in this camp.

S2U2 is technically a really nice program, tons of features and a great price (lol).

But, it suffers from XDA-ism: too many g-damn options.

For the power-user/hobbyist, it's a boatload of fun. For those who want a simple, light locker that works without really any bugs (AFAIK), I think PocketShield is a better choice.

Re: S2U2 Vs Pocketshield

S2U2 is so far above PS in the features/looks department it's not even funny, but PS is great on battery life, so

x2. As a new TP2 owner and someone that recently tried both apps this is the truth. I use S2U2 simply because it looks cleaner and seems more up-to-par with the look and feel of the TouchFLO3D interface. I have noticed the battery drain however. Fortunately I charge everywhere I am so there's never an issue.

Re: S2U2 Vs Pocketshield

Seriously, S2U2? Bloated? LOL......ookk..

At any rate, the day A_C makes S2U2 not drain battery is the day I will switch back. I'm aching for reasons to get rid of PocketShield but none have come around. It simply is the best locking program that does not drain battery in the least.
