I really like face unlock but I don't want to look like a **** taking a selfie whenever I unlock my phone. Would this be possible to do?

Prologue: This was something I saw first on Notebooks/Laptops! Face lock and Voice lock, not only its too trendy but also too secure to rely on. Well Android's new version are been loaded with this along with PIN lock, Password lock and even Pattern lock which were in previous versions too. I've tried many apps on store, but the stock is the best of all I've tried.
Uses of Face Lock and Voice Lock
→ You can set your face as your Password - Yup you'll get some privacy
→ More secured (when compared with Pattern, PIN, Password Lock)
→ Helps you Show off your phone
How precise is Face and Voice Lock
Face detection is better than those in Notebooks, that's what I felt after trying. Though you need to have a front camera which is not so great comparatively, the face detection is cool and accurate. One thing I would regret is face lock is not much at low light environment. But you don't have to worry coz you can also unlock by PIN if your face is not detected
Availability
Though the Apps on Store support phones from 2.3 to till date version, stock version can be seen in 4.2 Jellybean and onwards. So if you are using anything less than this, you may have to wait for update. ICS users can enjoy this feature - thanks to developers. All you have to do is flash a zip to install this feature.

How to setup??
→ Navigate to Settings>Security>Screen Lock
→ Select Screen Lock> Then Voice Lock or Face lock
→ Firstly you'll have to setup a PIN do it!
→ Now you can easily setup Face Lock or Voice Lock - Just follow on screen instruction
My experience with Face & Voice Lock
Well setting up of Face Lock or Voice Lock was cool but using it every time to unlock was a pain . You'll have to show your face every time to camera and smile! So could stick on.. May be different in your opinion.. Try it!!

If I get hold of your phone when unlocked I can add my face to your device without pattern/pin
Big security flaw
Yet fun if they fix it
It's all cool and handy, as long as you don't mind your device is literally watching and listening to you and everyone around. Same applies for fingerprint reading which gives nsa...I mean google and oems pretty nice databases
Useless
What the well is this admin , fully MAD who share this post ?????
For the time being this looks like a gimmick and not much else. Generally impractical and as you mentioned quite tedious to do so. Nonetheless, biometrics is improving at a solid pace. Wonder how much more can we go in the next 5-10 years.
i had op3 with frontal fingerprint, it was very easy to unlock the device when it was on the table.
now i have to lift the device for facial unlock.
do you use a faster way to unlock the device on the table?
Coming from OP3T I'm also having to come to terms with the same adjustment.
Only option I think you have is to enable the settings in gestures double tap to wake and then use Face Unlock

You knowingly bought a phone with a rear fingerprint sensor so why is this even a question? Use the passcode or pick it up it's pretty simple
Another option to unlock is using google voice match if you don't want to touch your phone. It works with OnePlus 6.
So, I didn't really know where to put this but since I have an S7 and a question, I might as well just do it here. Anyways... Is there a tweak/mod that goes along with Google Face Unlock? Like where your phone will just unlock after detecting your face? Because GFU still requires swipe to unlock once your face has been detected.
Hi guys, im facing the issue with Huawei P40 Pro. Gapps installed. The issue is that if i unlock my phone with different way of unlocking: face or finger. Note that 90hz mode is chosen in Settings. Both methods of unlocking turned on
1) if i unlock it with the finger - it works with 90hz
2) if i unlock the phone with face and the unlock screen appears at least for a moment - it works 90hz
3) if i unlock it with face and the unlock screen don't appear(actually i look at the phone and the unlock is really fast) - it turns 60hz.
Once i turned off the finger unlock option, it works 90hz with the only face unlock option. What should be the issue of this? I recordered the video to show you guys how it really looks like, add h before the link

i dont have this issue Whats your build number ? could you please share you complete build number.
Hey guys! I'm about to get myself one of these awesome phones, but I was wondering if there was a way to setup the unlock process to use the fingerprint sensor, but then have the lock screen hide the contents of any notifications unless it recognises your face. I believe a similar feature exists in iPhone, and I thought it was really cool, so might as well ask
Yes, this is possible. Just set up Face Unlock and hide notification until unlocked.
