Pin lock

We should be able to unlock the phone with a 4 digit pin without hitting ok bottom

It for sure would be nice

I agree with a 4-pin unlock; what difference does it make? 4-pin or 6-pin? I rely on fingerprint, but all it takes is a little moisture, and when skin texture changes, it doesn't work. I hate pattern unlock as it is easily visible on the screen, especially on the S24U's antiglare screen coating; the finger trace is so obvious that even wiping it is still visible. Obviously, a PIN, complex numbers, would be harder to guess than an obvious continuous pattern. Please bring the 4-pin auto feature back. Maybe hide it in the developer menu so it is only available to those who understand the risks and the NDAs that go with it. I love Android for its customizability, but it is starting to look more and more like iOS. What about a "God mode" for advanced users? I'm past my days of rooting, manual updates, etc., but it would be nice to have an advanced menu with maybe a simple reset button for those who make mistakes. Thank you.

Starts looking more like iOS? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 may be that's why people are asking to be able to lock or unlock each application on our S24U just like you can do it on iOS 18.

This was implemented by Google in Android 14.
There is a work around, go find it in the regular community!

[usermF14MDfflZ]

I know the work around but I shouldn't have to use one! If I want my phone to be less secure with only four digits opposed to six that's my prerogative and should be able to do it
