Hello everyone
Today I am presenting my Auth extension
Features
This extension can be used to check if a user has enabled passcode lock on his/her device
Use
If you want to integrate authentication using device lock in your app you can easily do it by using this intent as discovered by @ShanmugaNathan2023
But it has a great limitation well detected by @TIMAI2 that
The extension aims to resolve this issue by checking if the user has a passcode lock set up on his/her device
Then you can use the intent to ask for password lock. Issue Resolved

This block returns true or false instantly then you can use your blocks... nice suggestion will surely update in version 2... hope the community can test and give feedback on this extension
Ps please comment your device name and if its working in your device
It tests if a lock code is in place. Works in companion on Android 12 and 14.
What I was suggesting is a success return event, so that if the code entered is correct, the user can then proceed into the app, because the user can back out of the authentication dialog.
Yes user can back out, but you can use below steps to overcome,
when user skip the authentication we will receive empty ActivityStarter event,
In such cases we can use IF_ELSE block and start the ActivityStarter again and again which will be loop until correct password is entered.
Yes thats what I thought activity starter can call an event but I don't think that this can be used to detect if password was entered or not
PS I am working to implement it in the extension
