Is it possible to use PhoneGap/Cordova to make a screen lock?

Question

Very, very new to PhoneGap/ordova. As in the subject, is it possible to use PhoneGap/Cordova to make a screen lock? So someone have to use my app to be able to unlock the screen, so my app will be the default way of unlocking the screen...

Answer 1

Cordova uses a WebView inside a native app frame to make it look like a native app. This means it's going to be impossible to achieve this without writing some native code outside the realm of HTML / JS / CSS that you'd normally use within a Cordova App.

So in short this won't be possible unless you write your app natively or a plugin that uses native code for Cordova.
