Refuse blocking
By default on Android devices, the locking of the lock on the screen was installed. You press the unlock button on the side face, run your finger along the display and find yourself on the working screen. You can reduce the number of actions by half, getting rid of the pile.

If another method of removing the lock was tuned on the phone, you will have to remove it: enter a graphic key, a pin code or password, depending on the method of protection.
Refusing to block the screen, you make the content of the phone available to all.
List of contacts, correspondence, photographs, pages in social networks – any person will access them if you leave the device unattended.
There is another drawback: the likelihood of a random call, sending a message or launch of the application is increased. If you need to press the unlock key to turn on the system, then in the pocket it will be clicked constantly. Therefore, it is more reasonable not to refuse to block the screen, but to choose a more convenient way to remove it.
Choose another way to unlock
In Android settings you will find several ways to remove locking.
- Sweep on the screen. Does not protect against unauthorized access, but saves from random presses in his pocket.
- Graphic key. Can turn on from four to nine points. In total contains 389 112 combinations, of which only 1.
- Pin. Consists of four digits, which in total gives 10,000 combinations.
- Password. The most reliable way to block. The password can be from four to 17 characters, and the number of combinations exceeds a billion.
Fingerprint scan and identification by the face are additional methods. You protect the system with a graphic key, a pin code or password, and when removing the lock, select which option to use. Enter the key or, for example, attach a finger.
If you forget the password, a pin code or a graphic key, then the phone can still be unlocked. This will require a trusted device or access to the Google account. In extreme cases, you will have to return to factory settings, which will lead to a loss of data.
Use automatic unlock
If the Android settings have a SMART LOCK function, configure automatic locking in certain conditions. The method works only when choosing a graphic key, pin code or password.
Open the settings, go to the “Screenshot and Safety” section. Click on the Smart Lock point, enter a graphic key, pin code or password and select the condition for removing the lock.
- Physical contact. The device is unlocked when you pick it up. There is no fingerprint identification or person, that is, any person can access the system.
- Safe places. You indicate the place on the map in which the phone always remains unlocked. Any person who will be nearby can also gain access to the system.
- A reliable device. You set up a trusting device via Bluetooth. When connecting to it, the phone or tablet will be unlocked.
- Voice Match. Unlocking using the phrase “Ok Google”.
Some devices are also available for person recognition. However, Google developers warn that it provides less reliable protection than a graphic key, a pin code or password, since a person who looks like you can unlock the system.
