Screen Pinning
Use screen pinning to set your device to display only the screen for a specific application.
For example, if you are playing a game and you accidentally touch the Home navigation
key, the screen pinning feature prevents the active game app screen from being
minimized. You can also use this feature when you lend your device to another person to
make it harder for them to access more than one screen or application. For example, you
can lend your phone to somebody to make a phone call and pin the screen to the Phone
application so that the person can't easily use other apps such as Messaging or Email.
Screen pinning is not a security feature and does not fully prevent other users from unpinning a
screen and accessing your device. To protect your data, you should set up your device to
request a screen lock PIN, password, or pattern before someone can unpin the screen.
To Activate Screen Pinning
1
From your Homescreen, tap
2
Find and tap Settings > Security > Screen pinning.
3
Drag the slider to the right.
4
If you haven't set up a pattern, PIN, or password screen lock on your device, drag
the slider beside Lock device when unpinning to the right, then select an option. If
you already have a screen lock enabled, then drag the slider to activate the
relevant security option after you activate screen pinning.
A pattern, PIN, or password is not mandatory for screen pinning to work.

Application settings

Some apps will ask for permissions once you start using them. You can allow or deny
permissions individually for each app, either from the Settings menu or from the
Permission confirm dialog. Permission requirements depend on the app's design.
Allowing or denying permissions
You can choose whether to allow or deny permissions when the dialog is shown. If you
have used another Android version previously, most apps will have already been granted
the necessary permissions.
