Windows Phone 8.1 Live Lock Screen

[sc:mobile-category ]A while ago Microsoft promised a more dynamic lock screen for Windows Phone and they delivered “Live Lock Screen Beta” a few weeks ago.

I installed it and overall I have to say its kind of crappy.

It has several different kinds of lock screen (only one of which I found interesting) and didn’t come with any background for them.

I used it for a couple of days, but found it was unstable, slow and basically a poor replacement for the standard lock screen.

Perhaps they’re get it right in the next few releases, but it really doesn’t bring enough functionality for me to put up with it until then and I’ve removed it (there’s no way to simply disable it).
