U U nlocking your device automatically
The Smart Lock feature lets you set your device to unlock automatically in certain
situations, for example, when connected to a Bluetooth® device or when carrying it
with you. When Smart Lock is enabled you still need to unlock your device
manually after restarting, and after leaving the device inactive for 4 hours.
Choose from the following Smart Lock settings:
• On-body detection: Keep your device unlocked when carrying it with you.
• Trusted places: Keep your device unlocked when in a familiar, secure location,
such as your home.
• Trusted devices: Keep your device unlocked when a trusted Bluetooth or NFC
device is connected.
• Trusted face: Unlock your device by looking at it.
• Trusted voice: Use voice recognition to unlock your device from the lock screen or
while it's charging, and activate Google.
The Smart Lock feature is developed by Google, so its functionality may be changed or
updated over time. Furthermore, the feature may not be available in every market, country
or region.
