Knock is the name of some applications for iPhone si Mac, giving us the opportunity to unlock Macs in a completely and completely innovative way. If you look at the video clip above, you will notice that by a simple gesture of colliding the iPhone screen the Mac it will be automatically unlocked, all in just a few seconds. The applications on Mac and iPhone connect via Bluetooth 4.0, so the connection between them will not only be properly secured but also efficient from an energy point of view.
Faster and safer than typing a password, for iOS and Mac. You keep your iPhone with you all the time. Now you can use it as a password. You never have to open the app—just knock on your phone twice, even when it's in your pocket, and you're in. Using Knock won't drain your iPhone's battery, even if you use it all day every day. Knock securely communicates with your Mac using Bluetooth Low Energy, a new technology that draws very little power. Knock works with any Mac that supports Bluetooth 4.0.
The idea itself is extremely interesting and if you have a complex password set for your Mac, then using this system will probably save you time wasted in front of the keyboard. The Knock application for iPhone is available in the App Store, and the application for Mac can be found on the developers' website, the two devices must be at a maximum distance of 50m from each other to be able to communicate without problems.
