Keycard is a low-key OS X application that provides a very simple solution to automatically locking and unlocking your Mac.

Moreover, Keycard uses Bluetooth to detect when your iPhone (or other Bluetooth-enabled iOS device you’ve paired with) is away from your computer and then locks it for you. When you get back to your Mac, it magically unlocks.

The Keycard OS X utility is designed for users who want to secure their Macbook or iMac when leaving for just a couple of minutes to get some coffee, answer the door and what not. Keycard offers a seamless solution which requires almost no effort from your part.

When you and your device are at least 10 - 15 feet away from your Mac, the screen will activate Keycard’s lock screen. There are two ways of unlocking your Mac: the first is performed automatically when you’re close enough to your machine and the second is by entering a 4 digit code in the lock screen.

The digit code acts as a fail safe in case your iDevice got stolen, lost or discharged in the meantime. This way, you have a backup solution in the event that something has happened to your mobile device. The code can be changed via the menu bar panel.

In our era, We all concern about our computer security all the time. We usually forget ourself to lock our computer while we move from it. Some people have habit of turning off the mac or put into sleep, but it won’t be easy to do often when we talk a walk in Home or College or Office. At some point, we most of us left our mac open most of the time, while getting calls in our phone. Think what if someone take control of it, when you are not around? Complete Mess, Yes i know. You will be grounded when your parents caught your p0rn directory. Just Kidding, lets back to topic.

Today we have a solution for this problem. Appuous developed a saviour app ‘Keycard’ which locks your mac when you are not around. Lets find out what’s special in keycard and how it works.
How it Works:

Keycard secures your mac using Bluetooth connectivity through your Smartphones or Tablets. All you need to pair your iPhone or iPad or iPod or any Android device. When you are not around with your paired device, Mac will lock the screen, so no one can able to access your computer. Not only that, Keycard unlocks your computer automatically when you come near to your Mac, So you don’t have to unlock manually. What if you forgot your phone to take back near your computer?

How Keycard Upgraded :

Keycard Version 1.0 and 1.1 have some negative reviews about sensitivity bluetooth range, but Keycard V 1.2 fixed this issue in better way. Now the Keycard have Sensitivity option, so we can choose as we like. For example, if you choose High, it will lock when you leave few feet away. If you kept Low sensitivity, your mac will lock after long gap between you and mac. New Mac and iOS have better Bluetooth 4.0, so it allows long range. Keep sensitivity as your device and you like.

What Keycard is:

Keycard just hangs in your top menu bar, you can lock and configure the setting from it. You can pair as many devices as you want and keep them active, including the one you are using currently. Some times Bluetooth glitch prevent unlocking the computer, so you should always have 4 digit code for safety. You can set this app to launch in startup and also you can able to hide from the dock.
