How to set up lock-screen pattern, pin or password

Setting up lock-screen security !!

Decided on which one to go with? Great! To access these options, follow these brief instructions: 

• Go to the Settings menu on your device.
• Scroll down until you find “Security” or “Security and Screen Lock” and tap it. This is typically located under the “Personal”section on Android 4.2 or higher.
• Under the “Screen Security” section, tap the “Screen Lock” option. By default, this option is set to “Slide,” which means no password or pattern is needed.
• From here, select which lock type you want to use, whether it’s Pattern, PIN, or Password. 

Pattern: swipe to draw an unlock pattern you want to use. If you messed up, hit retry. Otherwise, hit continue. It will then ask you to draw that pattern again to confirm. 

PIN: insert a 4-digit PIN that you’re comfortable with. It’s a good idea not to use repeating numbers (don’t use more than two if you absolutely must). Hit continue. Re-enter the PIN to confirm.

Password: type the password you’re comfortable with. The password must be at least 4 characters, must be no more than 17 characters, and must contain at least 1 letter. Use an alphanumerical password with symbols that’s at least 8 characters long for ultimate security, but anything will do. Hit continue. Re-enter the password to confirm.
