Tips that will help you unlock your Android phone if you forget your password

Hi eveyone,
Android’s Smart lock is one such feature that helps to automatically unlock your phone. The option saves the problem of typing the password, PIN countlessly or even while waiting for facial recognition to work seamlessly (in a dimly-lit situation). Smart lock was introduced on Android 5.0 Lollipop OS and it has improved ever since. To enable this feature:

1. Head to the Settings menu on your phone tap on Security and then click on Smart unlock
2. You will be required to set a pattern or PIN to continue further
3. Once the feature is enabled, it will take you to next page showing four options – On-body detection (detects when the device is in your hand or pocket and keeps it unlocked), Trusted places (enables you to add location such as home or office and unlock device for extended time), Trusted devices (lets you add another device and keep your phone unlocked when it’s nearby), and Voice match (unlocks your phone with your voice command)
4. For few modes, you will have to fill the prerequisites, for instance, Trusted places require you to enable Location mode
5. The Smart Lock feature once set, you will see a ring at the bottom of your lock screen
