Tired of going through all those menus, just to change the time to lock your device immediately?

FAQ:

After you've installed this, go to the "Settings > System > Shortcuts" and add "Lock Device" to the shortcut list.
That's all!

• I don't have the "Shortcuts" menu in my Settings?

Be sure that you're at least running on firmware 1.0.7.16 or above!

• What should I do with the beautiful icon on my homescreen?

Well, it's up to you, you may hide the (beautiful) icon that is on your homescreen into a folder.

Not my problem. And I don't think your parents will know your password...

Asked this on freenode few days ago. You got idea same time? :D

But thank you anyway I used this so much on N9. I had even double click powerkey mapped to lock device script.

Edit: Best idea would be to get change lock gesture so that left side of screen would lock with password and right side normally.

Haven't tried it yet, but does it lock the device immediately or does it have a remorse timer ("Device locking in 3... 2... 1").
The latter might be an useful addition to avoid that a pull down action in a rush (e.g. to un/mute the device) ends up in frustratingly locked device.

It locks it directly.

I have never got any trouble selecting the desired option with the Pulley menu...
