Reading my messages or even sending them? I used to have a lock that came on after 5 minutes but it appears that doesn't stop them from using things on my lock screen...am I missing something?
 
This was the main reason I no longer use that app. Security-privacy is number one for me.

I thought I was the only one. Is there anyway to get notifications like texts or missed calls on my lock screen but not be able to view or reply if my passcode lock is on? I have it set to two minutes
 
If all you want is to see a message that you missed a call or text, you can do that with the stock OS 5 lockscreen notifications.
 
exactly my thoughts....though it looks super cool and super efficient to do almost everything at the lockscreen....you might as well remove the "lock"screen and go straight into the phone because this tweak negates all advantages of a "LOCK"screen...

you can check, reply, send and read emails, check, reply, send and read all messages, and facebook, and twitter and etc etc....

basically the developer put the "phone" at the lockscreen, albeit in a fantastic way ofcourse! :)

The price you have to pay for convenience, I have nothing to hide so it doesn't bother me. I just tried using a password to unlock my phone and it's just to much of a hassle, I can't stand putting in a password every time just to do something so my phone is totally open.

I guess I'll pay the price if I loose my phone. My phone is pretty much with me all the time, I rarely leave it laying out in the open. So I guess the question is, do you feel responsible enough to use your phone that way or do you forget and loose things.

You keep someone from picking up your phone. If you leave your iPhone laying around, it's unsecured. Keep it in your pocket. Nobody can read or send messages from your phone if they don't have it in their possession, right? It seems kind of lame if you have to input a password just so you can get into your own device.
 
How about...just closing the notification screen when you're done?

No one is going to think that they can pull the NC down from the lock screen, so if you just remember to push it back up, your phone should act just like the stock phone.

They must not be that controlling if they let you have a iPhone.
