How to change the pin of your Huawei Mate X

Normally, every smartphone offers you to set up a screen lock. With this, you can prevent third parties from accessing your content. A screen lock can be unlocked with a pattern, a fingerprint or a code. If you have opted for the latter, then you can change it as often as you want via the settings of your Huawei Mate X.

1. Open the settings of your smartphone by clicking on the app with the gear icon.
2. Further down you will find the entry "Security & Privacy". Select this.
3. In the next menu, you can now change all settings related to your lock screen. Select "Lock screen password" to customize the pin.
4. Tap "Set lock screen password" and follow the instructions to customize it.
5. The "Change unlock method" button also allows you to choose whether you want to unlock the screen using a pattern, a four-digit pin, a custom pin, or a password.
6. Wollen Sie die Pin für Ihre SIM-Karte anpassen, gehen Sie auf „Sicherheit & Datenschutz“ > „Zusätzliche Einstellungen“ > „Verschlüsselung und Anmeldedaten“ und anschließend auf „SIM-Sperre einrichten“.
