How do you unlock your smartphone?

[pinball wizard]

I was considering doing this, but with a 7 year old around at home...eish

We need to move this to a parenting thread on how to have rules at home and teach kids somethings are not allowed.

Pattern and location smartlock for when I'm home although I had to set my location for next door.

Swipe only.

None, just open the flap cover.

 

[Quey_Quick]

Swipe only.

Or security conscious?

If you lose your phone, you could lose all mail, notes, drive, dropbox etc. (unless there's a recover option for all)
I also have invoices I do on my phone, bank statements I'm reviewing etc.

Face recognition on iPhoneX - pin if restarted

I hear it doesn't work?

 

[ginggs]

None. I open the flap of my case

I've added an option to the poll.

It doesn't? I've been using mine for close to 3 months and have not had 1 day fail on me?
I've had issues when it's pitch dark, I guess the backlight of the lockscreen on mine does not emit enough light to light up my face?

But other than that, have not had an issue.

Bluetooth unlock with the Mi Band 2. Unless for some reason it doesn't work due to me holding the phone in my right hand far from the Band's location, then fingerprint unlock.

If it's on the desk near me, double tap to wake -> PIN.

Fingerprint unlock is a game changer. Love it.

Absolutely. and superfast on my P10.
One touch with either of 2 fingers and boom - home , screen loaded.
