About security
Screen lock options
To keep your phone secure, use a screen lock when it goes to sleep:
• Choose a pattern, PIN, or password to unlock.
• Add a Smart Lock to unlock automatically when connected to a trusted device, when you're
at a trusted place (like home or work), with facial recognition, or until you set your phone
down.
• You can access notifications and quick settings, start a call, and launch the camera from
the lock screen.
• You can make emergency calls on a locked phone. A locked phone still rings; you don't
need to unlock it to answer.
• If you forgot your pattern, PIN, or password, follow these steps.
You can customize the lock screen by adding your contact info. You can also control which
notifications appear on your lock screen.
Additional security options
For additional security, you can also:
• Protect your phone in case it’s lost or stolen. Use Find My Device.
• Connect to a virtual private network if you need to access files on a secure network.
• Add a SIM lock to prevent others from using your cellular plan and accessing account
information if your phone is stolen.
• Prevent viruses and other attacks on your data and privacy with Google Play Protect.
Protect against harmful apps
Scan phone for harmful apps
Play Protect helps keep your phone secure by automatically scanning your phone to check for
potentially harmful apps.
If Play Protect finds a potentially harmful app, it stops the app from running and warns you so
you can uninstall it.
To see the results or to rescan:
1. Open the Play Store app.
