Screen lock on Android phones
You can set a screen lock to secure your Android phone. Every time you turn on the device or wake up the screen, you must use a PIN, pattern or password to unlock the device. You can unlock some devices with your fingerprint.
Many couples share the screen lock with each other. This can be useful if, for example, you need to check something on your partner’s phone while they are driving. It is also a trust issue. If you prefer to keep your private affairs to yourself, you can keep your access code to yourself.
