## What it is
A customizable Android custom view library for implementing PIN lock screens, with an optional indicator dots view and dial pad usage. Written in Java and distributed via Maven/jCenter.

## Use cases

- you want a reusable numeric keypad beyond just locking
- you target older Android APIs (11+)

## When to avoid
- you need Jetpack Compose components
- you need biometric or pattern-based locking
- you need actively maintained dependencies (last release 2020, jCenter is deprecated)
