Quick Start Guide

Emergency.
If
you
have a device
that’s
set
up
for
more than one user, you may
need to touch your image at the
bottom
of the
screen
to
see
your
own locked
screen.
For
more
information, visit Set
screen lock.
Smart Lock
You can turn on Smart Lock to keep your device
unlocked
when it’s
safe
with you—for example, when you’re at
a trusted
place or when
the device recognizes your
face. To use
this feature, go to
Settings >
Personal > Security > Smart
Lock.
Trusted
devices
You can set your
device
to
stay
unlocked while connected to
a
Bluetooth device—like
a
watch,
fitness
tracker,
headset,
or car
speaker system.
You can
also
set your phone to unlock when it
touches an
NFC
tag.
Facial recognition
You can have your device unlock when it
recognizes
your
face. After
setting a trusted face,
every time you turn on your
device,
it will
search
for your
face
and unlock if it recognizes you. Keep
in
mind
that someone who looks similar to you could unlock your phone.
Note:
Face
matching doesn’t store
any
photos
of you. Data used to
recognize your
face is
only stored
on
your
device and is not
accessible
by apps or
backed
up on
Google servers.
On-body
detection
You can have your device stay unlocked when you have it on you
—
for example,
if you’re carrying it in your hand, pocket, or bag. The
accelerometer
built
into
your device will keep your device unlocked
