Unlocking your device automatically
The Smart Lock feature makes unlocking your device easier by letting you set it to
unlock automatically in certain situations. You can keep your device unlocked, for
example, when it’s connected to a Bluetooth® device or when you’re carrying it with
you. With Smart Lock enabled you still need to unlock your device manually after
restarting, and after leaving the device inactive for 4 hours.
You can set Smart Lock to keep your device unlocked using the following settings:
•
On-body detection [udoc_trans_smart_lock_onbody_detection] : Keep your device unlocked when
you're carrying it with you.
•
Trusted places [udoc_trans_smart_lock_trusted_places] : Keep your device unlocked when you're in a
familiar, secure location such as your home.
•
Trusted devices [usbux_strings_trusted_hosts_title_txt] : Keep your device unlocked when a trusted
Bluetooth® or NFC device is connected.
•
Trusted face [smart_lock_trusted_face] : Unlock your device by looking at it.
•
Trusted voice [smart_lock_trusted_voice] : Set up voice recognition to search in any screen.
The Smart Lock feature is developed by Google™ and its exact functionality may change over
time due to updates from Google™. Furthermore the feature may not be available in every
market, country or region.
