the screen unlock password (highest security). It is also recommended that you frequently change your

Note: Before using the Fingerprint screen lock option, you will need to register your fingerprint on your
phone.
1. From the Screen lock type menu, tap Fingerprints.
2. Follow the prompts to set up your fingerprints.
