Lock screen apps
To activate frequently used applications, press the lock button and drag to one 
of four Lock screen apps on the left side of the circle. This unlocks the tablet 
and opens that application immediately.
Note: Open APPS > Settings > Lock screen apps to change these 
applications.
Security Options
For additional security, you can set a PIN number that must be entered to 
access the tablet, or choose an unlock Pattern (a set of dots that must be 
connected in the correct order). Other options include Face Unlock and 
Password. The default setting is Slide where you swipe the on-screen lock 
icon in any direction to unlock the tablet. From the Home screen tap APPS > 
Settings > Security > Screen lock to select an option.
Note: If you forget an unlock pattern, please refer to "Unlock pattern" on 
page 46.
