Keeping your device unlocked while you’re carrying it
Using the On-body detection feature, you can keep your device stay unlocked while

accelerometer in your device keeps your device unlocked when it senses that it's
being carried. The device locks when the accelerometer detects that the device has
been put down.
The On-body detection feature can't distinguish whose body is connected. If you give your
device to someone else while it's unlocked using On-body detection, your device may stay
unlocked for the other user. Keep in mind that On-body detection as a security feature is less
secure than a pattern, PIN, or password.
