We’re thrilled to announce that the Locker desktop app is entering its open testing phase, and we’re inviting you to be a part of the process.
We’ve created this app in response to user feedback and to further streamline password management. Available on Windows and macOS, it’s packed with amazing features that promise to secure the way you access your passwords on desktop.
Keep reading to uncover how the Locker desktop app can elevate your digital life and how you can enroll in the testing program.
Why We Launch Desktop Version for Locker
Users of Locker already have a myriad of options for managing their accounts on different devices. But while web vaults, mobile apps, and browser extensions are certainly convenient, there’s still a strong case for using a native desktop application.
Many people still primarily work on desktop computers. A dedicated desktop solution allows for a more streamlined workflow and better integration with their daily routine. It also offers better management of passwords and online accounts due to the increased screen real estate.
While Locker’s web interface has been a great workaround in such cases for many, it has certain limitations compared to a native desktop app.
For starters, the web app can be much slower to load and navigate compared to a native app, which runs directly on your computer. This can lead to some frustration when you’re in a hurry.
A desktop app also offers more opportunities to integrate with other applications on your computer, offering features like system-wide hotkeys. This level of integration is harder to achieve through a web interface.
Why You Should Check Out Locker Desktop App
Intuitive Design
The Locker desktop app boasts a modern and intuitive design that balances simplicity with powerful features.
The thoughtful interface ensures that users can easily learn to navigate the app without feeling overwhelmed, while the well-organized layout means that important functions are never more than a few clicks away.
This user-friendly design of the Locker desktop app helps to streamline password management. It will be a breeze for you to add, edit, or search for passwords and other sensitive information.
Smart Integration
We believe Locker’s ability to work with desktop applications and websites sets it apart from the competition.
In future updates, the Locker team plans to integrate smart features such as auto-fill functionality, making the app even more convenient.
It would detect when you are accessing an app or website and automatically offer to fill in the correct login credentials. This seamless process would eliminate the need to manually input passwords, saving time and reducing the risk of typos.
Optimized Performance
Optimized performance is another area where the Locker desktop app excels at. Users who prefer a snappier and more responsive experience than our web vault will find that Locker delivers on this front.
The performance is tailored to handle large password databases and multitasking between applications with ease. Everything is instant and won’t slow down the computer – you can manage your passwords without any lag or performance issues.
Enhanced Privacy and Security
At Locker, we take privacy and security very seriously. By employing industry-standard practices to secure user data, your sensitive information will remain safe from unauthorized access.
The Locker team is working on integrating biometric authentication technologies like Windows Hello and Touch ID. You would be able to unlock your vault within the Locker desktop app using their fingerprint or facial recognition, adding an extra layer of security while also speeding up the login process.
