What it does
You left your desk and can't remember if you locked your Mac. Lock Status answers that from your iPhone. A free menu-bar helper reports locked, unlocked, or asleep. The iPhone app and its Home and Lock Screen widgets read it back. No account, no servers — status travels through your own private iCloud. Nothing for us to see. What's different: it never fakes confidence. Every reading carries when we last heard from it. Lose contact and it says "Locked · 12m ago", not a reassuring lie.
Glance at your iPhone to see whether your Mac is locked, unlocked, or asleep. A free Mac menu-bar app syncs its status through your own private iCloud.
Glance at your iPhone — Home Screen, Lock Screen, or the app — and know instantly whether each Mac is locked, unlocked, or asleep. No account to create, nothing on our servers, nothing we can see. Just your Macs, on your own iCloud. Signed & notarized, Gatekeeper-approved — installs cleanly on any Mac. Syncs only through your own iCloud. We have no access to your data — ever. No sign-up, no email, no tracking. Nothing to leak because nothing is collected. Run the free helper on each Mac and they all appear — each with its own live status. Home & Lock Screen widgets show each Mac's status without opening a thing. The Mac app is free. The iPhone app is a free companion — Pro is optional. A…from lockstatus.app
