The native prototype supports app locking with macOS authentication, per-app relock rules, guided face setup, and a recognition test. Optional Mac unlocking is still in development.
Not yet. Onlyward is in early development. This page lets you explore the planned experience; it is not the native application. Follow the GitHub project for updates.
Does this demo actually recognize me?
No. It plays through simulated states. It does not request camera access, recognize faces, save passwords, or protect installed apps.
Does App Lock need my saved Mac password?
The native App Lock prototype uses macOS Touch ID or account-password verification without saving your login password. Any future Mac Unlock feature would require separate, explicit credential setup. It is not available yet.
How will face setup work?
The native prototype guides you through three gentle poses and saves an encrypted face profile on your Mac. A separate recognition test measures similarity and prompted blink motion. Face-based access and resistance to photo or video spoofing are still being evaluated.
What will App Lock protect?
The planned feature covers selected app content until you authenticate. It is a visual privacy layer, not encryption of another app’s files. Native security, compatibility, and battery use still require validation.
