3 Alternative Ways To Unlock Your Smartphone Should You Forget Pin Or Pattern
You would agree that there have been at least one moment when you have one time or the other forget the password, PIN or pattern combination to your Android #smartphone. It really could get pretty annoying especially if you need to obtain
some data and information from your device
as a matter of urgency.
Well, no one is to be blamed, we are all
humans. We forget stuff. The big questions
are “what’s the way forward? What’s the
solution?”
Today, we bring to you, 5 different answers
to your questions.
1. Utilize the “Forgot Pattern” feature
The “Forgot Pattern” feature comes in handy
when you have imputed the wrong pattern
and your device asked you to wait for 30
seconds before the opportunity of another
trial. While waiting, the Forgot Pattern button
will appear at the bottom of the screen and
you can hastily click on it.
After clicking, you will be redirected to a
page where you can choose to either unlock
your device by providing your Google account
details or by answering some security
questions.
However, it is worth noting that the Forgot
Pattern feature works only on smartphones
running the Android version 4.4 KitKat OS or
older versions.
2. Google’s Android Device Manager
Another useful tool you can use to unlock
your phone in case you forgot the PIN,
Pattern or Password is the Android Device
Manager powered by Google.
To use the Android Device Manager service,
you are going to have to access the
service
website on another device, preferably a
desktop. This method of alternative unlock
will only function as long as your Google
Account is logged in on the device to be
unlocked.
Upon visiting the website and providing
correct login details, you can unlock your
device by creating a new PIN, Password, or
Pattern on the Android Device Manager
platform. Afterwards, you can use the newly
created password to unlock your device.
3. “Find my Phone” service by Samsung
If you happen to own a Samsung Android
device and you can’t seem to recall your PIN,
Pattern or Password, this feature is a relative
alternative to unlocking your device. But
before I dive into giving the details, it is
pertinent to state that before you can use the
“Find my Phone” service, you must have
registered or set up a Samsung account on
your device; just as in the case of Google’s
Android Device Manager.
If you do have an active Samsung account
on the device to be unlocked, head over to
the Find My Phone service website using any
compatible browser and log in with your
Samsung account credentials. Once you are
logged in, locate the “Protect my device”
option in the menu.
Right under the “Protect my device” option,
click on the “Lock my screen” option and
proceed to create a new unlock PIN for your
device. So easy.
There you have it. 3 easy ways to unlock
your device whenever you forget your PIN or
Password or Pattern.
