data. When you set up a screen lock, you can set whether the screen lock must be entered to
turn on the device.
Some security features, such as Smart Lock, require that you set up a screen lock before you
set up the feature.
There’re several types of screen locks to choose from. Each type is designed to provide a
different level of security.
Password: A secure password can contain letters, numbers, and symbols. A password is
designed to be a strong screen lock that is difficult for someone else to figure out.
PIN: A PIN must contain a minimum of four numbers. The more numbers there’re in your PIN,
the more secure your screen lock.
Pattern: A pattern is a continuous line that connects four or more dots on a grid. You trace
your pattern to unlock your device.
Swipe: A swipe gesture can unlock your device.
Fingerprint: You can touch the fingerprint scanner to unlock your device quickly. If you use
this type of screen lock, you must also set up a backup screen lock (password, PIN, or
pattern).
Smart lock
The Smart Lock feature lets you set up your device to remain unlocked when it's connected
to a trusted Bluetooth enabled device or when you are carrying it in your hand, pocket, or
bag. The Smart Lock feature also allows your device to remain unlocked when it is in a
familiar location, such as your home or workplace.
The Smart Lock feature is a convenient way to access the data on your device, but it doesn't
confirm that the device owner is the person using the device.
You must have a screen lock set before you can set up the Smart Lock feature.
SIM card lock
You can set up a PIN for your SIM card, which you can use to help prevent unauthorized use
of your SIM card in another device. For example, if you lose your SIM card and someone tries
to use it in another device, the SIM card can't be used unless the PIN is entered correctly.
Google™ account and factory reset protection
The factory reset protection feature uses your Google™ account information to help protect
the data on your device. If your device is lost or stolen, the factory reset protection feature is
designed to prevent someone else from being able to set up your device for use, even if that
person tries to reset your device to its factory settings. The device must be set up using the
same Google™ account information that was set up on the device before it was reset.
To use the factory reset protection feature, you must set up a screen lock and you must add
your Google™ account to your device.
