Hello Fans,

Fingerprint unlocking and face unlocking are the most common ways to unlock phones, as it is more convenient than unlocking with a password. But, what if someone unlocks your phone with your fingerprint when you are sleeping?

Well, this article will teach you a little trick to help you solve this problem.

First, go to Settings > Security & Privacy > Lock Screen Password > Secure Lock Settings > Show Lockdown button on Power off Screen, turn the switch on.

After turning this function on, long-press the power button to enter the shutdown interface, and the Lockdown button will appear. When the Lockdown mode is turned on, the phone can only be unlocked with a password (as shown below), and the fingerprint unlocking and face unlocking are invalid.

Note：This function will be disabled when the screen is locked again after unlocking with a password, and the fingerprint and face unlocking can be used normally. To use the lockdown mode again, you need to long-press the power button to reset it.

Very useful, right? So, when you are going to sleep, you can turn this mode on to protect your privacy.
