pattern lock
Swipe-based phone protection
A pattern lock is a security feature on touchscreen devices where you unlock by tracing a specific path connecting dots in a grid, typically three by three.
The gesture you draw—a zigzag, an L-shape, a square—serves as your password: I forgot my pattern lock and got locked out of my phone.
