Unlocking Your Device Automatically

The Smart Lock feature makes unlocking your device easier by letting you set it to unlock

To prepare your device to unlock automatically, you first need to perform the following
steps in the order given:
Make sure you have an active Internet connection, preferably a Wi-Fi® connection to
limit data traffic charges.
Make sure all your apps are updated using the Play Store™ application in order to
ensure that the Google Play™ services app is updated. Having an up-to-date Google
Play™ services app ensures that you can use the latest Smart Lock features.
