Phone is lost or accessed by an unauthorized user.
Set a lock screen password: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Lock screen

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.

NFC
Introduction to NFC
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a technology that enables short-distance wireless communication.
Through NFC's contactless communication, two devices can transfer data in real time when they are
within 10 cm (4 inches) of each other. In addition to data transfer, NFC also allows you to make
payments.
NFC can be used in multiple scenarios with different requirements and methods.
Point-to-point mode: Transfers data between two NFC-enabled devices within a short distance. No
pairing is required and a more secure connection is established.
Scenarios
l Transfer les (such as images, apps, and contacts).
l Quickly establish a connection between devices (like Bluetooth pairing or hotspot sharing).
Limitations
90
Page 96
Device Connection
l Both devices need to support NFC.
l During data transmission, devices must be within 10 cm (4 inches) of each other.
l Screen must be on and unlocked when using NFC.
Read/Write mode: Supports reading and writing NFC tags.
Scenarios：Check product information with NFC tags.
Limitations
l Cards and products must support reading and writing NFC tags
l Read and write/P2P must be enabled on the NFC settings screen if available. This feature may vary
depending on your carrier.
Card emulation mode: Allows your Phone to act as a smart card so it can access mobile ticketing for
public transport, and mobile payments.
Scenarios
HCE emulation: Allows your Phone to act as a QuickPass-enabled bank card by associating your
device with a physical bank card in a banking app.
Limitations
HCE emulation: For example, UnionPay Cloud QuickPass. First download the app for your bank card
and associate your card with the app. For details, consult your bank's customer service center. Then
enable NFC, set a specic bank app as your default payment app in NFC while keeping the screen on
and unlocked. To make Cloud QuickPass payments, your card and the POS device must support
QuickPass.
Not all devices support NFC.
Turn Your Phone into a Digital Key
If you often forget your car keys or worry about lost keys when lending your car, put your car keys in
your Phone. Share and revoke digital car keys at any time to minimize risks. Your Phone can still be
used as your car key within 24 hours of powering off due to low battery. Digital key data is stored in
your device's security chip and cannot be copied.
Follow these steps to use Phone Digital Key:
1 Activate your car key under the guidance of the automobile manufacturer's customer service
personnel or the 4S shop staff.
2 Open
Settings, go to Device connectivity > NFC, enable NFC, and set Default payment
app to your automobile manufacturer's app.
3 To unlock your car, hold the NFC area of your Phone near your car's door handle. The screen can
be on or off. To start your car, put your Phone into the Wireless Charging Shelf and press the start
button on the car. After your car is started, you can remove your Phone from the Wireless
Charging Shelf. To lock your car, close the door after you get out and hold the NFC area of your
Phone near your car's door handle.

l Compatible car models: Currently, only the Audi A8/A7/A6/A5/A4/A3/Q8/Q7/Q5 and e-tron
are compatible with this feature. More models will be supported in the future.
l You can share multiple secondary keys to others and revoke them at any time from your
automobile manufacturer's app. The number, sharing method, and usage of the shared keys
vary depending on your car model. For details, see your car's user guide.
l If your Phone is lost, you can revoke your digital key from your car or the manufacturer's app
or website.
l The NFC area is located around the rear camera on the Phone. Locations vary slightly between
device models.

Connect Your Phone to an External Display for PC-Like Functionality
Carrying your computer from home to the
ofce and then back again every day can be tiring.
Wouldn't it be great if you could just use your Phone instead? You can connect your Phone to an
external display using a conversion cable (such as a Type-C to HDMI cable) or through Wireless
projection, and then combine all the benets of a desktop computer, with the convenience of a
Phone.
Connecting your Phone to an external display gives you the following benets:

l Privacy protection: Notications, incoming calls, and chat messages will only be displayed as red
dots on the notication panel of the device and not on the external display, preventing potential
embarrassment.
l Dual displays: Display work-related content on the external display while you chat with friends on
your Phone.
l Desktop experience: Enjoy a desktop experience with Android apps. Open multiple windows,
manage les, search your device, or change the desktop wallpaper. You can also connect a mouse,
keyboard, and other peripherals.
l Wireless projection: Can't project your Phone to an external display because the cable is too
short? You can use wireless projection to connect your Phone to an external display.
l Large-screen conference: The PPT can be projected on a large screen. Pointer is supported and
can be used to write notes directly on PPT that is projected on the large screen. It improves the level
of engagement of your presentation tremendously.
Connect Your Phone to an External Display
By using a cable, your Phone can be connected to an external display.
Use a docking station without USB ports to connect your Phone to an external display, or a docking
station with USB ports to connect your Phone to a display, keyboard, and mouse simultaneously.
l Docking station without USB ports: supports the conversion of USB Type-C to one interface,
such as USB Type-C to HDMI. If your external display has an HDMI port, use a USB Type-C to HDMI
adapter to connect your device to the external display.
