General Atom isn't worth the money

How would it work with JellyLock? It works with SubtleLock but doesn't look great and I crashed into safe mode once.

Ah okay, I got it working with atom (just for the clock) and it makes the lock screen look pretty slick!

Had a quick question can you assign bitesms quick compose to 1 of the functions of Atom or does it go into the actual app?

I was wondering that too, but from what I can tell it only lets you select actual apps. I'm hoping things like this and maybe things like turning on/off wifi comes.

More apps should have trial periods but I guess that's up to the developers to decide to add that or lose business to piracy or people who just don't want to spend money on something they aren't sure will work or even like.

I'm usually not hesitant to buy new tweaks but this time I was since I already have JellyLock.

The only thing I wish Grabby had is more of the useful icons. I'd rather have an icon for Safari than a gavel, a stethoscope and an umbrella.

you can use the actual app icon for any app. change it in the settings.

here are two screenshots since the capture doesn't show all 5 icons but only the highlighted one. shown are my phone and browser app respectively.

 
Is it real battery drain though or the fact that you spend more time playing around with JellyLock and Atom because they're fun to use? Playing around = more screen time = battery drain....

I think this is the case, because I haven't experienced any drastic battery drains with Atom

I don't play with it more. The dev said it can't drain the battery, but I had much battery life without it. The only reason I use it is because it looks nicer on the Ls. It works great, but I just like the looks.

I've been trying every version of Grabby so far and the latest (0.5) finally works flawlessly for me! Replaced JellyLock at least for the time being :p

Same here. It drains battery a bit faster even when I don't keep unlocking the screen.

ok, JellyLock is gratis.

That may be a positive point for you but doesn't matter for me anyway.
Plus I'm not arguing or defending that Atom is better, I just said why I prefer it.

You can like JellyLock, I don't have a problem with that. ;)

Why people always bitch about different opinions? Am I forced to like what you like? lol
 
Nice, I'm loving the Jellylock. I'd like to see the extra icon options added, other than that, it's perfect.

Yeah! Agree with you!
no need to persuade others follow your choice, just choose which one you prefer!
I like atom better since it is prettier on my lockscreen with lockinfo and LS air.
 
Thanks for bringing up this tweak!
I purchased Atom, but always wishes Atom can be more like Jelly bean lockscreen since the icons in Atom are too far apart.. which isn't as convenient as the Jelly bean lockscreen.

I just gave Jellylock a try, it's exactly what I wanted it to be. However, unlike Atom, there are some compatibility issues with other tweaks, such as Lockinfo..

As of now, I will keep using Atom, since its far more compatible than Jellylock, as the developer is more actively working with other developers on the compatibility issues. However, I'm looking forward to Jellylock's future update as I believe Jellylock has a bigger potential.
