There is no password protected screen lock for Tracker. I wish the designers can make it for us.😉

i have this program on my phone which allows locking of the screen called: "screen lock" which has an icon of a screen and a small padlock on the bottom right hand corner, i don't know where it was from but to unlock it, you need to press up on the jog dial, then down, then push it in and it will unlock the phone, not really much of a lock but it's much more secure than the one on tracker or handy day because theres no chance of accidental unlocking of the phone when in the pocket

If all you want is a screen locker to stop accidental screen taps in your pocket, the one in Tracker works well. In fact, its the main reason I use Tracker. There is a program called 'Screen cover' that is supposed to do the same thing and offer nice extras like a clock but the developers won't shell out for a certificate so I can't load it on my phone to test it.
