Set a L
ock 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 unauthorized user.
Set a lock screen password: Open

password, and set the type of lock screen password you prefer.
l 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.
l 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.
l 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.

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.
l Unlock your device using a ngerprint: If your device supports ngerprint unlock, this is the
ecommended unlock method. Using a ngerprint is a secure and quick way to unlock the
r
device. After setting a lock screen password, touch Enroll in the dialog box that pops up and
follow the onscreen prompts to enroll your ngerprints.
l For security reasons, please do not disable the lock screen password: A lock screen
password prevents unauthorized access to your device. For the security of your device, do not
select Disable lock screen password as the screen lock method.
l 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.
