Set up Privacy Password
On the realme smartphone, we can set a privacy password which is required for the app lock and private safe functions. The privacy password is not the same as the screen lock password, but it can also be a pattern, password or PIN.
Note: To be able to recover the password, a security question and a corresponding answer are set during the setup.
