Pocket-Mode
If enabled, the pocket mode setting uses the mobile device's proximity sensor to disable touch gestures and block the screen, fingerprint scanner, and power button. Its purpose is to prevent misoperation on the touch screen while the device is in your pocket.
Tap Policy to select the device behavior when pocket-mode is triggered by the proximity sensor.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Display Off | The display turns off, leaving the device in an unlocked state. When the proximity sensor no longer detects an obstruction, the display will turn on and the device will remain unlocked. |
| Progressive Lock | The display initially turns off. Then, after a period (defined by Lock timeout setting) without any new sensor change, it will enter suspend mode. When the proximity sensor no longer detects an obstruction, the display will turn on and the device will remain unlocked if the lock timeout has not elapsed; otherwise, the device will resume from suspend mode and will be locked or unlocked according to the screen lock configuration. |
| Device Lock | The display enters suspend mode. When the proximity sensor no longer detects an obstruction, the device will resume from suspend state and will be locked or unlocked according to the screen lock configuration. |
Delay
To prevent accidental activations, once a nearby object is detected, the Pocket-Mode will be triggered after a brief delay. Drag the Delay slider to set the duration of the delay.
Lock timeout
If Progressive Lock is selected, sets the amount of time before the display enters suspend mode after any new sensor change.
