Only Lock screen widget I have every used was Widget Locker but it was a three years ago or more.
Would setting up certain profiles work to restrict calls? Not sure, something I have never really thought about.

I want to essentially restrict everything but calls and texts on a device, temporarily, without purchasing a new device.
I think that Start might do it, will play with it tonight and see.

Try something like Tasker to disable wifi/data/sync while on a lock screen and only allowing SMS and calls? You could also blacklist certain numbers so they cannot call or text.
You essentially want to be able to call and text while the phone remains locked? I know I can receive in this manner but cannot send.

Would shortcuts for "direct dial" and "direct message" not be secure enough? Or is this possibly someone more tech savvy that may try to text other people?

That might work. It's really not a big thing to limit the numbers called, but it might be useful at some point, which is why I added that in.

Yes, with the added ability to not allow someone who picks up the phone to use it to call whoever they want.

Some big updates to SwiftKey this morning.
- some different keyboard layouts.
- you can now unlock the keyboard and move it around.
- key sizing.
There could be more.

I like the one handed layout. Much easier to text on my Nexus 4. I was a little worried the smaller keys would make more mistakes but it seems fine so far.

The new keyboard sizes are awesome. Plus they have added a Canadian dictionary.

Hangouts just got updated for everyone for SMS use. Giving it a try. I don't really use Hangouts anyways so it is just a text messaging app for me.

Didn't notice until now but the Tapatalk app (not pro) actually has the features from beta and is working?!

The new humble bundle is out for Android games. The big highlights are probably Ridiculous Fishing and swordigo, which have been out for iOS for some time and just now released for Android. Fishing seems pretty fun and a good time killer. Other games are Epoch, rymdkapsel, spell tower, and kingdom rush.

That's a really strong lineup. Worth paying above average for!

Email app that actually works very well and has a nice interface.
Would love to be able to remove the 'sent with Cloud Magic' that they put in the signature of every email you send.

On second thought, I wouldn't trust CloudMagic with your work exchange email as they seem to store everything on their servers.
