Provides a plugin to LockInfo to allow task and event information from the Pocket Informant application by Web Information Solutions, Inc. to be displayed on the lock screen of iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad devices.

The development of this plugin is not related in any way to the developers of Pocket Informant.

This is a fork of release r48 of the Appigo LockInfo plugin by IamTheFij at http://code.google.com/p/appigo-lockinfo-todo although the original source code has been extensively refactored.

The plugin is developed and maintained by TrikieD@gmail.com

If you have any issues or questions then please initially check the Frequently Asked Questions page. There is also a comments page if you have any feedback on the project.

What's New

Version 2.1.1 was released on 13th February 2012 and improves support for iOS 5 including:

• Shows iOS reminders within the Pocket Informant task list.
• Create and search for iOS reminders directly from the lockscreen.
• New buttons on iOS reminders and events to go directly to the iOS application.
• Complete iOS reminders directly from the detail screen.
• Graphical tweaks for better appearance with LockInfo 4 and iOS 5.

It adds new features including:

• Security options for the lockscreen to disable previews, event locations and task search or creation.
• Added phone number dialling to tasks as well as to events as previously.
• Day summary bar how shows past events as well as events in the future.
• Option to keep past events visible so the calendar lists all the events for the day.
• Option to remove the "Pocket Informant" title when replacing the standard LockInfo reminder and calendar plugins.

Compatibility

This plugin is compatible with the latest version of Pocket Informant on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad (2.02.41). It also supports the previous release of Pocket Informant (1.68). It requires version 4 of LockInfo and version 4.2 or later of iOS.

This is the last version that will support version 1 of Pocket Informant. All future versions will require version 2 which is a free upgrade from version 1 in any event.

The plugin is available in English as well as German, Italian, Chinese and French (many thanks to Rainer Koelsch, Andrea Solari, Qiyuan Qiu and Pink Floyd for the translations). If you're interested in helping with translation to your own native language then please get in touch.

How Do I Use It?

Just install it using Cydia. Look for "Pocket Informant LockInfo Plugin (Native)" in Cydia's list of packages. There's a detailed procedure here.

You'll find the configuration options in the iPhone Settings under LockInfo/Plugins/Pocket Informant. The options are described here.

Known Issues

• Occasionally the plugin may display an error such as "SQL preparation error: no such table". Don't worry - your database is fine. This is caused by a workaround for Pocket Informant leaving the database locked when it is in the background. Generally the problem will either "solve" itself the next time the plugin does a refresh or the next time you open and then close Pocket Informant.

I can't fix problems if I don't know about them. If you run into an issue then why not report it on the Issues Page.

Upcoming

• Nothing planned (yet).

If you have any ideas for features you'd like to see then why not add a suggestion to the Issues Page. I can't guarantee I'll be able to do anything but you never know...
