Or if youre in your car or at Home, then you wont need to enter password to open your phone. But if you want to remove this feature and want to swipe or enter your pin no matter where you are then do this..go to:
SETTING>LOCK SCREEN & SECURITY>SECURE LOCK SETTING>SMART LOCK. Here you'll see "Trusted Places" and "Trusted Device" Just edit or press and hold whatever is in there, e.i your watch, your home address etc...then remove and you should be good to go.
This post is a joke, RIGHT?
I don't have anything on my phone. Brand new and just now going thru the set-up. The PIN worked a few times but then suddenly stopped. I have no trusted devices or anything silly like that set up. I'm not even half way thru the initial set-up to begin with.
Don't make a post saying "HERE'S THE SOLUTION!!!" when you don't know what you're talking about.
