How to use Smart Lock on your Samsung One UI 4.1 phone?

Most people nowadays use passcodes to protect their smartphones from other hands. However, when you are home or in a safe place where you feel there is no need for security, you don’t like to enter the password every time you unlock your phone or use any locked application.

Meanwhile, the Samsung Smart Lock feature automatically unlocks your phone by recognizing different signals. By setting this up, you can keep your phone unlocked when you are holding it or at a specific time or place.
