Nearlock is a simple and useful app for mac users. If you have a house with other people living in it such as your siblings or parents, you can lock your computer when you walk away. This is an important features because it prevents people from accessing your data in your computer without authorization automatically. Just walk away from your mac and it locks. Come back to your mac and it unlocks. For users who are not on MacOS Sierra+ (at the day of review), their computers have the ability to take pictures of people who attempt to get into your computer. I would recommend this to all mac users.
