SECURITY

Screen Lock

Settings > Security > Screen lock
It is recommended that you secure your device using a
Screen lock. This added level of security helps prevent
someone from accessing your device including your
personal data, apps, and email accounts. There are a
variety of screen lock types with different levels of security
for your selection including a swipe, a pattern, a numeric
PIN, a password, or fingerprint recognition.
In addition, you can set a Smart Lock to unlock your
device automatically and keep it unlocked when it's on
you, when you are in a trusted location or when trusted
devices are detected.

Fingerprint recognition

Settings > Security > Fingerprint
The fingerprint sensor on the back of the device can be
used by the device to identify you. Before you use this
function, you will need to register your fingerprint on the
device. You will then be able to unlock the screen, view
locked content, confirm a purchase or sign into an app
that supports fingerprint ID. You will be able to register
multiple fingerprints and delete them at any time.
Fingerprint data will be saved only to your phone and will
not be backed-up.

Google Play Protect

Settings > Security > Google Play Protect
Google Play Protect runs a safety check on apps from
the Play Store before you download them. You can
configure Google Play Protect to regularly check installed
apps and your device for security risks and threats. App
updates are checked automatically, and you will receive
a notification if any security threats are detected. Play
Protect is ON by default.
