Protecting Your Phone With Screen Locks
You can protect your phone by creating a screen lock. When it is
enabled, you can swipe up on the lock screen, and then draw a
pattern or enter a numeric PIN or password to unlock the phone’s
screen and keys.
1. From the home screen, touch Settings > Security & location >
Screen lock.
2. Touch None, Swipe, Pattern, PIN, or Password.
Touch None to disable screen lock protection.
Touch Swipe to enable screen lock and allow unlocking with
a “swipe” gesture. You can unlock the screen by touching the
display and sliding up.
Touch Pattern to create a pattern that you must draw to
unlock the screen.
Touch PIN or Password to set a numeric PIN or a password
that you must enter to unlock the screen.
3. For Pattern, PIN, or Password, choose whether to further protect
your phone with secure start-up. When it is enabled, you must
enter the pattern, PIN, or password when powering on the
phone in order to use it normally.
4. For Pattern, PIN, or Password, select how you want notifications
and their contents to show when the phone is locked, and then
touch DONE.
