  • Android 14 is adding a quality-of-life feature for lock screen PIN users.
  • The new feature is an auto-confirm unlock option.
  • The feature can be toggled on or off.

Google has released the second developer preview of Android 14 and users are finding a variety of new features. One of those recently discovered features appears to be an “auto-confirm unlock” option that should make lock screen PIN users happy.

If you use a PIN to unlock your handset on Android 13, you usually have to input your PIN and then hit “OK” before the device will unlock. According to XDA Developers, Android 14 introduces a nice quality-of-life feature that will save you a step. If auto-confirm unlock is toggled on, it will unlock your device as soon as you enter the correct PIN, eliminating the need to tap the OK button.
