About security
Screen lock options
To keep your phone secure, use a screen lock when it goes to sleep:
•
Choose a pattern, PIN, or password to unlock.
•
Add a Smart Lock to unlock automatically when connected to a trusted device, when you're at a trusted
place (like home or work), with facial recognition, or until you set your phone down.
•
You can access notications and quick settings, start a call, and launch the camera from the lock screen.
•
You can make emergency calls on a locked phone. A locked phone still rings; you don't need to unlock it
to answer.
•
If you forgot your pattern, PIN, or password, follow these steps.
You can customize the lock screen by adding your contact info. You can also control which notications
appear on your lock screen.
Fingerprint sensor
Quickly and easily verify your identity using the ngerprint sensor on your phone, instead of entering a
password, PIN, or pattern to unlock the phone, make online and in-store purchases, and sign into banking
and nancial apps.
You can add and remove ngerprints.
Fingerprints:
•
Are created from features of your ngertip, converted to a mathematical representation, and then
encrypted and stored only on the phone. No ngerprint images are ever stored.
•
Are never shared with Google or Motorola.
•
Are never shared with other apps. Your phone only shares the verication, not the ngerprint.
Note: A ngerprint screen lock may be less secure than a strong pattern or PIN lock. It is possible to unlock
the phone using a physical copy of a matching ngerprint.
Additional security options
For additional security, you can also:
•
Protect your phone in case it’s lost or stolen. Use Find My Device.
•
Connect to a virtual private network if you need to access les on a secure network.
•
Add a SIM lock to prevent others from using your cellular plan and accessing account information if your
phone is stolen.
•
Prevent viruses and other attacks on your data and privacy with Google Google Play Protect.
