All in the name of privacy we all have passwords in form of pin, pattern, facial recognition and so on on our phone without thinking about a time where someone will need to access our phone to save a life or pass a message across to our loved ones without us been there.



We all know passwords are meant to keep intruders off our device but these days some are even strict to the extent that the closest person to them doesn't even know their password.

Three friends had an accident in a car and became unconscious. A stranger got to the scene and wanted to call for help. He had no phone. There were six mobile phones in the accident car but all had password on them.

They all died as a result....!

A pregnant lady collapsed at home with her little daughter. The little girl had no idea of what was happening but saw her mother gasping for air. She picked her mother's phone to call her Daddy but there was a password on the phone.

She lost her life.....! Whose fault?

I don't want to start by asking if password has done more harm than good but my advice is;

Your life is more precious than those information you are securing on your phone.

Only put password on your Gallery, File Manager, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc and leave the call and text message side free. Or you may create an hidden folder here on http://www.techymandy.com/2017/07/how-to-create-hidden-folder-on-android.html

You may one day save your life or the life of your loved ones.
