On iPhone and iPad, install the lockmeout.online app from the App Store. It is a full app — create locks, receive unlock codes and push notifications — and it also gives you a lock screen widget that shows your unlock secret without unlocking the device, plus Siri integration to read it out hands-free.

After installing, set up the lock screen widget and notifications so you can read your unlock code even when no other device is available.

lockmeout.online is also a Progressive Web App (PWA): it runs in any modern browser and can be installed to your home screen or dock on any platform — no app store required. The web app covers all core features (creating locks, receiving unlock codes and push notifications), but does not include the native extras such as the iOS lock screen widget or Siri integration.
