Editors’ Review
SJ Screen Saver for Mac acts as a screen saver and locker, allowing you to set hot keys, as well as limitations on the number of attempts necessary to unlock the screen. It works well but isn't indispensable.
Pros
Limitations on password entries: With SJ Screen Saver for Mac you can set a number of maximum tries before wrong password inputs get rejected. Also, you can define the waiting time before another unlocking attempt is allowed.
Hot keys: You can set hot keys to lock the screen and to immediately turn your Mac off without unlocking the screen.
Intuitive settings window: Configuring the application is easy. You are presented with just a single window -- everything you need to configure, from hot keys to passwords to restrictions, is just a click or two away.
Cons
Mac turns off after reaching the maximum number of password retries: Once your Mac shuts down, the active application also exits. Everything goes back to normal after a restart. Also, a shutdown means that the running programs you've left open are forcibly closed, possibly causing data loss.
No significant functionality added: Mac already has its built-in screen saver feature that can also serve as a locking tool.
Bottom Line
SJ Screen Saver can replace the built-in Mac screen saver. However, installing it does not add anything significant to your computer. What's more, the standard Mac screen saver has more features, including the ability to turn the display off, put the hard disks to sleep, and enable Power Nap.
