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 unauthorized 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.
20
Page 25
Home Screen
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.
Unlock your device using a ngerprint: If your device supports ngerprint unlock,
this is the recommended unlock method. Using a ngerprint is a secure and quick way
to unlock the 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.
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.
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 o and lock. As long
as the screen stays on, you can use your Phone without needing to unlock the screen. Lock
