Set a Lock Screen Password to Protect Your Privacy
Personal photos, contact information, and banking apps, your Phone stores a lot of sensitive
information. Set a lock screen password so that a password is required each time you unlock
your Phone. A lock screen password helps to protect your private information if your Phone is
lost or accessed by an unauthorized user.
