Basic
Sharing
The Sero 8 gives you lots of ways to share with other people.
In many apps, tap Share or Share icon and choose a sharing method from
the list for sharing. The options vary depending on the app you’re using.
Security
Set Screen Lock
You can set an automatic screen lock to prevent unauthorized access.
NOTE
If your Sero 8’s playing music when the screen locks, you can continue
listening or pause the selection without unlocking.
To adjust your lock settings:
1.
Go to
Settings > PERSONAL > Security > Screen security > Screen lock
.
2.
Tap the type of lock you want and follow the on-screen instructions. If you
have previously set a lock, you must enter the pattern, PIN, or password to
unlock the lock settings. You can choose lock options, in order of strength:
Slide -
The slide provides no protection, but lets you get to the Home
screen or Google Now quickly.
Face Unlock -
Lets you unlock your device by looking at it. This is the least
secure lock option.
Tip:
After you set up Face Unlock, look under
Settings > PERSONAL >
Security > Screen security
for two additional settings: Improve face
matching and Liveness check. Use these to make Face Unlock more
reliable and secure.
Pattern -
Lets you draw a simple pattern with your finger to unlock your
Sero 8. This is slightly more secure than Face Unlock.
PIN -
Requires four or more numbers. Longer PINs tend to be more
secure.
Password -
Requires four or more letters or numbers. This is the most
secure option, as long as you create a strong password.
Tips:
For best security, specify a password that
• Is least 8 characters long.
• Contains a mixture of numbers, letters, and special symbols.
• Doesn’t contain any recognizable words or phrases.
Encrypt Your Data
You can encrypt all the data on your Sero 8: Google Accounts, app data, music
and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must
enter a numeric PIN or password each time you turn on your device. If you
already set up a screen lock, you must use the same PIN or password. You can’t
have two PINs or passwords.
