Android: Smart Look - Enable Voice Recognition

By now you don't have to rely on your memory to unlock your phone. You can now conveniently unlock your Android smartphone using your own voice. As a result, you will always have access to your data. You just need to make the appropriate setting in Smart Look.

How to enable voice recognition

Enabling voice recognition on your Android smartphone is really easy and can be done within a few minutes.

1. First, open your smartphone's settings and click on the "Security" section. Following this, select the "Smart Look Option".
2. Select the "Voice Recognition" option. Turn on the option by tapping the switch.
3. Android will now send you a message telling you that the Smart Look feature is not as secure as a PIN or password. You must click "OK" and thus confirm that you have taken note of the notice.
4. Your smartphone will now unlock itself with the command "Ok Google".
5. If you have not yet used voice recognition, your smartphone must first get to know the sound of your voice. To do this, you need to speak the command "OK Google" three times in a row. After that, you can use voice recognition.

The security of your smartphone

Surely, voice recognition is a convenient solution to unlock the smartphone. However, you should keep in mind that people who have a voice similar to yours will also be able to unlock it. In addition, if you are hoarse or have a cold, for example, you will have problems unlocking your Android smartphone.
