Note Locker 1.0.0.0

A neat note taking utility for Windows Phone that protects the content with a custom password
Once in a while, all users feel the need to write a few lines for various reasons and since the mobile phone is usually the device mostly at hand, having a reliable app for this job is a must.

When someone wants to make sure the texts remain safe and inaccessible to others, trying out a utility like Note Locker might actually be the right choice.

Friendly GUI made for ease of use

The app offers a pretty simple GUI for you to go through the various sections and add or manage notes with ease. The graphics are decent, with a solid color background, while the organization of the content is straightforward.

All the tools and commands can be easily accessed from the main menu that is hosted in the lower side of the screen, so you should have no issues in getting along with the utility in this respect.

Nonetheless, there are some mishaps, as the app does not support the landscape orientation, so the notes are shown truncated inside the main screen. Another hindrance, a bit smaller is related to the loading time of the login screen, which is a bit high than it should be.

Write and save notes inside the safe box

Note Locker comes prepared to hosting any number of notes inside its secure vault and adding the entries is a very easy task. All you have to do is tap the "+" sign to create a new note by simply writing the text in the main workspace and then pressing "OK" to save or "Delete" to discard the respective entry.

There are no customizations for the notes nor other management commands, so you will only be able to simply add content, read, edit or erase it from this application. Also, in case you were thinking of creating separate containers for various types of notes, this is not possible either, as all the entries are hosted inside the main screen

A good thing is that all the saved notes appear in alphabetical order, but it would have been great to also have the date and time of their creation on display so as to make it easier for you to locate a specific note among many others you might have in store.

Basic security for accessing the app

The password management is straightforward and the only operation you can carry out in this respect is the modification of the default access code from 123456 to anything you want, with numbers, letters (case sensitive) and symbols.

Also, you should note that it is very important to remember the password you set because Note Locker does not provide any recovery options.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
 

The appearance of this utility is less attractive and with delays in loading the login screen, but very easy to use and the practical character save it some points in this respect.

Function4
 

There are very few features users have at their disposal, so the lack of options makes the application lose a lot here.

Security10
 

Note Locker is very well-behaved as it doesn't touch any system area while it is running, so installing it is as safe as it can be.

Battery5
 

There is a quite substantial power drainage while this app is running, so the battery usage records high levels.

Price10
 

Without asking for a single cent for the offered functionality and lacking annoyances like ads and prompts, this utility is a very good deal.

Compatibility9
 

Any Windows Phone 8 and above handset is suitable for installing and running this application, without any special requirements.
