CLUSTER ACCELEROMETER-AUTOMATICALLY-LOCKS · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2018-07-19
Accelerometer-based device locking apps
This cluster comprises mobile apps that use motion sensors (accelerometer, etc.) to detect physical events such as falls, sudden movement, or device orientation, triggering actions like screen locking or alarms. Five dated entries appear from July 2018 to October 2025 at irregular intervals, indicating a thin and sporadic history. The traction leaders (Neruppu, Fall, Private Lock) all report zero stars, so no product shows meaningful activity advantage.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 5 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
