Android’s brand new OS update, specifically designed for the tablets, Honeycomb has many eye-popping new features, specially with respect to the user interface. And the brilliant lockscreen is one of them. Honeycomb isn’t made available to the phones, but that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying the amazing ripple lockscreen.
Ripple Lock is a lockscreen replacement app for Android devices which mimics the lockscreen of Android 3.0 Honeycomb. The app comes in Free as well as paid versions. The free version comes with ads which really spoils the fun and makes the lockscreen look dirty, The paid version though is free of ads and would cost you $1.30!
The ripple based unlock animation is a treat in itself. Just drag the lock away from the unlock circle and you start seeing the ripples. Dragging to the edge of the circle unlocks the screen. The developer promises to update the app frequently and aims to add more and more features in coming days. Give Ripple Lock a try and let us know if you like it. Check the video of Honeycomb Lockscreen animation after the break.

I think that RIpple Lock is a cool app to mess around with, but serves very little purpose/use as an actual screen lock.
