Unlocking your Chromebook normally requires entering a password. Google has developed the Smart Lock feature for users of Android Lollipop. This makes it possible to unlock your Chromebook by using your smartphone. If you are near your laptop with your phone, you will be able to unlock it. Both devices must meet certain requirements and the Smart Lock function must be enabled.

In addition, both devices must have the Bluetooth function turned on in order to connect with each other. It is not (yet) possible to use Smart Lock in combination with an Android tablet, regardless of the version.your chromebook

  1. Log in to your Chromebook
  2. Set up both your Chromebook and your smartphone so that both have an internet connection
  3. On your Chromebook, click your account picture
  4. Via the settings click on ‘show advanced settings
  5. Go to the Smart Lock option and choose ‘set’ here
  6. Follow the instructions to establish a connection between the Chromebook and your smartphone
  7. Make sure both devices are within range of each other
  8. As soon as your Android phone detects the Chromebook, it will notify you that a connection has been made

Smart Lock also offers you the option to set up safe places. Your device will then be automatically unlocked here. You can also declare locations temporarily safe.your chromebook

Turn off Smart Lock

Disabling Smart Lock is very easy. You can also navigate to the advanced settings on your Chromebook via your account image. In the Smart Lock tab, you can choose the option ‘Disable Smart Lock’.

Has the smartphone you use Smart Lock been stolen? In that case, Google recommends that you change the password of your Google account. You can reset your Android phone remotely for optimal security.
