With Android 7.1 or later, you can create a shortcut, similar to a widget, to unlock a specific lock directly from your home screen.

  1. Press the three dots next to the lock.

  2. Then select Add to home screen.

💡You can also unlock your frequently unlocked spaces via a shortcut by long-pressing the Parakey app icon and press the lock you want to open.
