Attributes

Remarks

Called by a device owner or profile owner of secondary users that is affiliated with the device to disable the keyguard altogether.

Setting the keyguard to disabled has the same effect as choosing "None" as the screen lock type. However, this call has no effect if a password, pin or pattern is currently set. If a password, pin or pattern is set after the keyguard was disabled, the keyguard stops being disabled.

As of android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#P, this call also dismisses the keyguard if it is currently shown.
