Hey Everyone ! 👋 Quick question: Have you ever... 👉 Left your laptop to grab coffee and panicked thinking "Did I close my banking tab?" 👉 Had someone walk behind you and see your salary on a job search tab? 👉 Shared your computer with a family member but had private messages open? 👉 Used a public computer and forgot to log out of something sensitive? 👉 Had nosy coworkers "accidentally" see your tabs when screen sharing? If you answered yes to ANY of these, you need Locksy. Here's what happened to me: I was at a Starbucks working on my laptop. Stepped away for 2 minutes to grab my order. When I came back, someone was using my table (thought I'd left). My laptop was still unlocked with: - My bank account open - A tab with my medical records - A job application (while still employed 😬) That's when I realized: We lock our phones automatically, why not our browser tabs? Why existing solutions SUCK: 🚫 Password managers = only for login forms, not actual tabs 🚫 "Private browsing" = closes everything when you exit 🚫 Cloud-based tab lockers = your data on their servers (hello privacy violation!) 🚫 Most cost $10+/month for something that should be basic security So I built Locksy: ✅ Lock ANY tab with a password in 1 click ✅ Military-grade encryption (SHA-256 + salted hashing - same tech banks use) ✅ 100% OFFLINE - nothing leaves your computer, ever ✅ FREE FOREVER - no premium tiers, no subscriptions, no BS ✅ Works on Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi Real use cases: 🏢 At work: Lock salary research tabs before screen sharing 🏠 At home: Protect private tabs from kids/roommates ☕ Coffee shops: Step away without closing 20 tabs 🏥 Medical/Financial: Keep sensitive info locked 💼 Job hunting: Hide applications from current employer The best part? Unlike other extensions that track you, mine everything, or charge monthly fees, Locksy is: - Open source (check the code yourself) - Zero tracking (no analytics, no servers, no data collection) - Privacy-first (if I can't see it, hackers can't either) Just launched v1.0.4 today with enhanced security - each password now uses cryptographic salting (prevents rainbow table attacks). Try it: 1. Install from Chrome/Edge store 2. Click the extension icon on any tab 3. Set a password 4. Done. Your tab is now protected. 🔗 Get Locksy (Choose your browser): 🌐 Chrome: https://chromewebstore.google.co... 🌐 Edge: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.... 🌐 Website: https://locksy.dev 🎥 Watch Demo: https://youtu.be/C99yuKTqEFA Would love your feedback! What other privacy/security features would you want in a browser extension? P.S. - If you work on shared computers or public spaces, this might save your career someday. Just saying. 😉

@vansh_sethi_vs Is it secure?

@test53 Yes, absolutely! 🔒
Locksy uses local encryption and browser APIs — meaning your data and passwords never leave your device. Everything stays fully private and secure.

Appreciate you asking — security is at the heart of Locksy! 🙌
