Can get that fixed

I don't like it when my phone rings and anyone can pick it up and answer it. I want to be the only one to be able to answer my phone. No info on the screen and a fingerprint or pattern unlock to answer.

You can go to settings then Lockscreen >notifications hide content

Can also in Lockscreen turn off app short cuts

But you cant do anything about phone coming in so no one can answer.

You can install Applock - Fingerprint Pro and put Phone in the list of apps to be fingerprint unlocked.

Not crazy about those type of apps , sometimes more trouble then it's worth.

I used this one for a long time - aside from having to unlock an app every time you use it, it's no problem. (I only stopped using it it because my banking app - the last one without fingerprint lock - finally got fingerprint lock.)

Oh ok , you have experience with it , then we go on your recommendation.

That's why I have so much junk on my phone, mustang. I don't recommend what I haven't tried.

I purchased and Applock - Fingerprint Pro, and it will let anyone answer my phone. Any other ideas?

Nope.

Nope.

Maybe you can ask this guy if he ever figured out how to undo what you are trying to do.
