Lock Screen Password Bypass

CW3 — Sun, 04 Dec 2016 19:31:16 GMT

Hey, I have a Xperia Z5 and whenever I get a notification come through it allows me to double tap it and unlock my phone, while having a password. How do I stop this as people could easily get onto my phone without using a password

@CW3,

Welcome to the community.

I think @uliwooly could be right here. You can test this by having someone else try to perform the same action on your device, away from home. If it is smart lock then they should not be able to do this, only you.

If you wish to disable it, go to Settings > Locks & Security > Smart Lock, and turn it off.
