Set a screen lock
You can lock the touch screen with an unlock pattern or
password to prevent unauthorised people from using the
device without your permission.
Once you set a screen lock, your device will require

an unlock code each time you turn it on or unlock the
touch screen.
If you forget your pattern or password, bring your
●
