2. Tap 
Select screen lock.

rget 
your Knock code unlock sequence.

captures your image to identify you. Keep in mind that Face Unlock is 
less secure than a pattern, knock code, PIN, or password because it 
uses generalized shape and dimension to verify your face.
   
Pattern: Unlocks the screen using a pattern you draw with your finger. 
The first time you set an unlock pattern, you'll see a tutorial with 
instructions on how to create it. Read the tutorial, then tap

a password (at least 4 characters) and tap Continue. Re-enter your
