Set up Facial recognition
Note: To use Face recognition, you need to set a PIN, Pattern, or Password first.
Your face is unique to you, which makes it one of the best security features in your arsenal.
From Settings, tap Biometrics and security, and then tap Face recognition.
1.
Tap Continue. If you don't already have a secure screen lock, you will need to set one up.
2.
Hold the phone 8-20 inches away and position your face inside the circle. Hold the position until the
progress bar reaches 100%. You may be prompted to remove your glasses to finish the process.
3.
When you're done, adjust your desired settings, and then tap Done.
4.
You can now unlock your phone by just looking at it! However, if you’ve set up a lock screen with Face
recognition, your screen may request a PIN, Pattern, or Password under the following conditions:
At least once every 24 hours.
•
If 4 hours have passed without using the device.
•
If the device has been restarted.
•
Note: These additional checks are to help keep your phone secure.
Facial recognition options
Once your face is registered to your device, you can use additional security options and settings. To access these
options, navigate to Settings, and then tap Biometrics and security. Tap Face recognition, and then enter your
security credentials. The following will be available:
Remove face data: Delete the current face recognition data that is stored.
•
Add alternative appearance to enhance recognition: This is useful if you change your hairstyle, facial hair,
or make up.
•
Face unlock: Unlocks your device when your face is recognized.
•
Stay on Lock screen until swipe: Remain on the Lock screen until you swipe even if you already used Face
recognition.
