Keep phone unlocked while it's on you

You can keep your phone unlocked while you’re holding it in your hand or carrying it in your pocket or handbag. Just unlock it once, and it stays unlocked until you set it down (or manually lock it).

1. Make sure you have set a screen lock.
2. Go to Settings.

3. Touch Security > Smart Lock > On-body detection.

   If you don't see Smart Lock, try the following:

   • Update Google Play services. In the Google Search widget on your home screen, search for “Google Play services”, then touch the app to open it.
   • Go to Settings > Security > Trust agents and enable Smart Lock.
4. Turn it on.
