To turn Smart Lock on or off on your Android phone, you need to follow these steps:
1. Open the Settings app on your Android phone. You can usually find it by swiping down from the top of the screen and tapping on the gear icon, or by locating the app in your app drawer.
2. Once you’re in the Settings app, scroll down until you find the “Connected devices” option. This is where you can manage various settings related to your connected devices, such as Bluetooth and NFC.
3. Tap on “Connected devices” to access the settings related to your Android phone’s connectivity.
4. Look for the option that says “Smart Lock.” It may be listed under a subheading like “Security” or “Lock screen.” Tap on it to access the Smart Lock settings.
5. In the Smart Lock settings, you will see a toggle switch that allows you to turn Smart Lock on or off. If the switch is in the “on” position, it means Smart Lock is currently enabled. If it’s in the “off” position, it means Smart Lock is disabled.
6. To turn Smart Lock on, simply tap on the toggle switch so that it moves to the “on” position. You may be prompted to confirm your action or enter your phone’s security credentials, such as a PIN, pattern, or fingerprint, depending on your device’s settings.
7. To turn Smart Lock off, tap on the toggle switch so that it moves to the “off” position. Again, you may need to confirm your action or provide your security credentials.
It’s worth mentioning that the exact location and naming of the Smart Lock settings may vary slightly depending on the version of Android you are using and the customizations made by your device manufacturer. However, the general steps outlined above should help you locate and manage the Smart Lock feature on your Android phone.
