I don't want Google Maps or any other apps running on the lock screen.
I'm not talking about app shortcuts, I'm talking about if you have Maps open and navigating and you lock your phone, when you turn it on again (not unlock) Maps and some other apps will display over the lock screen. (Like Uber Driver app).
Doesn't seem to be a permission...

I can't seem to figure out if it's possible to activate S-Voice from the lockscreen with a double tap of the home button?
I don't want to burn by battery up using the voice wake for S-Voice on the lockscreen because the device is always listening.
I'm running Widget Locker, but I disabled it and still couldn't get S-Voice to activate from Lockscreen with double tap.
Am I missing something or is it just not possible?
It appears the only way to do this is in Security settings to turn the Unlock setting to NONE. Then in Widget Locker, enable the Allow Home Button option.
But then I believe there is no way to lock your phone. Seems the only way I can think of to access S-voice from lockscreen and be able to lock the phone is to add S-Voice to one of the docked apps on the lockscreen. But that didn't work, as S-voice won't do anything until you enter the lock code. Makes sense as S-Voice would give you access to opening a lot of apps and such on the phone.
So it seems I have to either live with the phone never being locked, or have to type a PIN or whatever to unlock it to use S-Voice.
Smart Lock App was the answer. Now I can double tap home for S-voice from lockscreen, but you need a pin to get into my email and Facebook apps. Not I just need to figure out anything else I need to lock. No sensitive data on the card. The main thing is not allowing anyone into anything they can make payments or access my cloud files. Guess I should lock Google Play since it has automatic payment of apps?
Has anyone else run into the issue of your music widget not displayed (while playing) on the lock screen?
Whenever I've actively been playing music via Google Play Music (on S2, S4, and S5) I've had access to the widget on the lock screen to skip, pause, etc.
Currently, I don't have access on the S6. I've also tried doing a factory reset and still no luck.
Anyone have any on the fix?
If you're using a lock like a pin, pattern or fingerprint, you need to allow all notifications to be seen on the lock screen. If you have them blocked or set to only show which apps have notifications waiting, you won't get the widget on the lock screen.
in Nova launcher when you swipe right on your home screen do you get a Google search and feed card?

i found a way to reduce the number of time i accidentally open it. i added a second card to the home screen and then in nova settings i turned on infinite scroll. the google card only opens when i drag my finger from outside the screen.
Hi,
i'm experiencing an annoying issue with MIUI since Oreo. I use a Mi Max 3 but i think the behaviour is the same on every MIUI phone.
- i start a route with google maps
- i lock the phone
- i unlock it via fingerprint
=> I see the homescreen and Maps is beeing minimized to PIP mode (small window).
When i unlock the phone via face unlock maps stays open (like it should). Only unlocking via fingerprint opens PIP Mode.
I tried to disable PIP for Maps and then unlocking just shows the homescreen and google maps is in the background.
Why is this? And is it on every MIUI Phone with Android >=8?
Thanks
Is there any App or Mod for non rooted device which can give a lock screen button on home screen.
Some of the ones I tried on play store disable the fingerprint while re logging in.
Just need lock screen shortcut button on home screen like in accessibility menu.
