Keeping Your Device Unlocked while You're Carrying It Using the On-body detection feature, you can keep your device unlocked while you have it on you, for example, if you're carrying it in your hand, pocket, or bag. The 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.

Your PIN and PUK are supplied by your service provider.

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.
