Security Features

Can I set up 2 different security methods to unlock my device? For example, if I set up fingerprint to unlock and a numerical pass code, will either unlock my device or does it have to be one or the other?

Mine is set up for fingerprint and pin. It defaults to fingerprint but if that doesn't work for some reason I use pin. They both do work though. I'm not sure if there is a way to get it to default to one way or the other though.

OK so if for some reason the fingerprint fails & you have a pin set, you can still open your phone?

Got it thank you. I already had a pin set up but didn't want to foul things up. Either one works.

It would require the pin if your phone became locked. Like if you had a double tap to lock screen option enabled or if your smart lock location / device got out of range, etcetera, etcetera.
