Set a Lock Screen Password to Protect Your Privacy
Personal photos, contact information, and banking apps, your Phone stores a lot of sensitive
information. 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 > Screen lock &
passwords, 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 device is quick
and simple. For better security, use a long sequence of random numbers as your PIN. Go to
Password > PIN, follow the prompts to set up a PIN, then touch OK.
l Set a pattern: Unlock your device by drawing a preset pattern on the screen. For better
security, use a pattern that includes overlapping line segments. Go to Password > 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. Please memorize the password so that
you don't get locked out of your device if you forget it. Go to Password > Password, follow the
prompts to set up a password, then touch OK.
l 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 will instantly unlock the device. Touch Smart unlock, and follow the
onscreen prompts to complete the setup.
l Unlock your device using a fingerprint: If your device supports fingerprint unlock, this is
the recommended unlock method. Using a fingerprint 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 fingerprints.
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 None 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.
