When using Face unlock, keep your eyes open, and face your device straight on from a distance of 20–50 cm (about 8–20 in.). In order to scan your face accurately, avoid using this feature when you are in a dark environment or facing direct light.

Currently, only one face can be enroled. Delete the current facial data to enrol again.

1 Open Settings. Go to Security & privacy > Face recognition > Face recognition and enter your lock screen password.

If you haven't set up a lock screen password, set one first. Besides the 6-digit PIN, you can set up other types of passwords: Pattern, 4-digit PIN, Custom PIN, or Password.

Camera Tips

Use Panorama Mode to Take Panoramic Photos

Panoramas provide a wider viewing angle than ordinary photos, letting you take sweeping landscape shots.

To capture a panorama shot, the camera takes multiple photos of objects within our visual field and stitches them together into a single photo.

When taking a panorama, find a wide, open space that is some distance away from the subject and try to avoid backgrounds that are all in one colour.

Go to Camera > More > Panorama.

Screen Lock and Unlock

Set a Lock Screen Password to Protect Your Privacy

Your Phone stores a lot of sensitive information, such as personal photos, contact information, banking apps (for example, Alipay). Set a lock screen password so that a password is required each time you unlock your Phone. A lock screen password helps to protect your private information if your Phone is lost or accessed by an unauthorised user.

Set a lock screen password: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Lock screen password, and set the type of lock screen password you prefer.

Set a PIN: A PIN number is a sequence of digits. Entering a PIN to unlock your Phone is quick and simple. For better security, use a long sequence of random numbers as your PIN. Go to Set lock screen password, follow the prompts to set up a PIN. Alternatively, touch Change unlock method, and set 4-digit PIN or Custom PIN.

Set a pattern: Unlock your Phone by drawing a preset pattern on the screen. For better security, use a pattern that includes overlapping line segments. Go to Set lock screen password > Change unlock method > Pattern and draw the same pattern twice. The pattern must connect at least 4 dots.

Set a password: A password made up of numbers, letters, and special characters is more secure than a PIN or pattern. For better security, use a password with 8 or more characters that includes numbers, letters, and special characters. Be sure to memorize the password so that you don't get locked out of your Phone if you forget it. Go to Set lock screen password > Change unlock method > Password, follow the prompts to set up a password.

Unlock your device using a smart band: If your device supports unlocking with a smart band, the screen will automatically light up when the band comes within 80 cm of your device. Swiping on the screen of your Phone will instantly unlock the device. Touch Smart unlock, and follow the onscreen prompts to complete the setup.

For security reasons, please do not disable the lock screen password: A lock screen password prevents unauthorised access to your device. For the security of your device, do not select Disable lock screen password as the screen lock method.

Regular password prompts help you to remember your password: If you have not entered your screen lock password for 3 days, the system will require that you enter the password to unlock your device.

Lock the Screen to Quickly Secure Your Phone

If you don't use your Phone for a set period of time, the screen will turn off and lock. As long as the screen stays on, you can use your Phone without needing to unlock the screen. Lock your screen when you are not using your Phone to protect your privacy and prevent mistaken inputs.

Set a lock screen password to help protect your privacy. You can lock your device in the following ways:
