Not sure if someone else feels like me, but I find it very annoying when the screen wakes (when you move your wrist) without I’m noticing it. And I unintentionally click on it. So when I really want to see the time and raise my wrist, it sometimes have some other thing opened (settings menu, g maps, or even the dialer).
So I decided to come up with a lock screen to avoid it.
I’ve accomplished it with Tasker. It’s a pretty simple thing to do even if you are not a developer (just like me).
I just show an invisible layer on top of everything, everytime the screen goes off. The only gesture this layer responds to is a swipe down. So no clicks or any other kind of swipe will work. As soon as you swipe down, Tasker destroys the scene (invisible layer), giving you back the access to the system.
If someone want it, just let me know and I’ll share the Tasker configurations (profiles, tasks and scenes).
Hey @Fabio , thanks for the hint!
I’ve never used it before, but it seems to work just fine.
I’ve installed App Factory, created the APK and installed it on my D5.
It seems the first time, you have to run it by clicking on the app icon (lock), but after that it will start running on the background every time you turn the watch on.
Please let me know if it works for you.
Here is the download link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0AV_OADvJWgQmFfRkVVY055UkU
Please keep in mind that it takes a while to get used to it (it took me a couple of days).
So please don’t hit your watch with a hammer or blame me if you forget to swipe down first =)
I’m still testing the APK. It seems it stops responding after a period.
Maybe some priority issue. I mean, I’ve heard if the app does not have a permanente notification, or something like that, the OS can stop it’s services running in the background. So maybe that’s what happens here.

Anyways, for you that have already Tasker installed on the device, or are willing to do so, here it is the download link for the Tasker Project: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0AV_OADvJWgNUJ4Qk1KY3ZWZEE
The Google Drive actually shows the XML code instead of downloading it. But if you hit the Download button on the top right of the page, it will download the file LockScreen.prj. I guess you just have to place the file at the folder Tasker\projects and import it inside Tasker.
