Protecting Your Phone With Screen Pinning - Zte Avid 579 User Manual

NOTES:
• Screen lock options are listed in the approximate order of the strength of
their security, starting with None and Swipe, which provide no security. A
pattern provides minimal security, although it can be more convenient than
the stronger options.
• Remember the pattern, PIN or password you set. Otherwise, you may have
to contact customer service to upgrade the phone software (see Upgrading
the Phone Software ).

PROTECTING YOUR PHONE WITH SCREEN PINNING

You can use the screen pinning feature to keep an app in view, so people
cannot switch to other apps or access your personal information.
Turning On Screen Pinning
1. Swipe up on the home screen and tap Settings > Security > Screen
pinning.
2. Tap the On/Off switch.
3. If you haven't set up a screen lock (a pattern, PIN, or password), you can
tap Lock device when unpinning and follow the on-screen instructions to
set one for added security. If a screen lock is set up, you can tap Ask for
unlock pattern/PIN/password before unpinning. You will need to draw the
pattern or enter the PIN/password to unpin the screen.
