Lockscreen Settings

[Rogersterling1234]

Hi all,

I've migrated back to android from iPhone and I can't seem to configure the lock screen to the way my iPhone was. Badically, with my iPhone I could have face recognition and leave the phone unlocked for an hour before it requires a pin. I could use my face recognition to log into apps with no problem.

Is there a way to have the phone unlock via swipe and still be able to use face recognition to log into apps? It would be a bonus to have the pin require after a certain period of time too. I guess this would be the determining factor of whether or not I stay with android or return it. I find it to be a pain in the ass to unlock this phone because I'm tapping swiping inputting a pin etc .....

Thanks for the link Javi, it seems like the type of configuration I'm looking for is not available for android... sucks

It's unfortunate your S20 doesn't offer the lockscreen functions of your iphone. In other words, that sucks lol.

I guess I just have to get used to tapping on the damn screen

You could also use fingerprint. If you do, I would advise registering and saving the same fingerprint several times. when it ask add additional fingerprints, I add 2 or 3 of the same finger. It will recognize my print on the forst attempt almost every time.
