Application Settings; Screen Pinning; Glove Mode - Sony Xperia M5 E5606 User Manual

Glove mode

Using glove mode, you can wear gloves and still navigate the screen on your device.
When you use glove mode, a cursor ring appears on the area of the screen where a
touch is registered.
To enable glove mode
1 From your Home screen, tap
2
Tap the Glove mode slider.
The sensitivity depends on the size of the contact area between the screen and the gloved
finger that you use to navigate the screen.

Screen pinning

Use screen pinning to set your device to display only the screen for a specific
application. For example, if you are playing a game and you accidentally touch the
Home navigation key, the screen pinning feature prevents the active game app
screen from being minimised. You can also use this feature when you lend your
device to another person to make it harder for them to access more than one
application. For example, you can lend your device to somebody to take a photo and
pin the screen to the Camera application so that the person can't easily use other
apps such as Email.
Screen pinning is not a security feature and does not fully prevent other users from unpinning
a screen and accessing your device. To protect your data, you should set up your device to
request a screen lock PIN, password or pattern before someone can unpin the screen.

2 Find and tap Settings > Lock screen & security > Screen pinning.

unpinning slider to enable or disable this additional security function, as
desired.
A pattern, PIN or password is not mandatory for screen pinning to work.

permissions individually for each app, either from the Settings menu or from the
