Screen Pinning

Use screen pinning to set your device to display only the screen for a specific

application. For example, if you are playing a game and you accidentally touch the Home

navigation key, the screen pinning feature prevents the active game app screen from

being minimized. You can also use this feature when you lend your device to another

person to make it harder for them to access more than one application. For example,

you can lend your device to somebody to take a photo and pin the screen to the Camera

application so that the person can't easily use other apps such as Email.

Screen pinning is not a security feature and does not fully prevent other users from unpinning

a screen and accessing your device. To protect your data, you should set up your device to

request a screen lock PIN, password, or pattern before someone can unpin the screen.

Lock device when unpinning to the right, then select an option. If
