My lockscreen's glitching

[mnémosync]

Can anyone help me for this? I already rebooted my phone and disabled biometrics. When I tried changing my lock screen method to swipe, the lockscreen just gets removed instantly. Please help

I recommend trying turning on safe mode and checking it. What it does is disable all 3rd party apps. If the issue still persists then it could really be the device. Otherwise, if it doesn't happen while on safe mode, then try checking the apps you have installed.

It worked. Although I need to brute forcefully remove multiple apps to identify which is which. But it works. Thanks

That's amazing! I agree it can be troublesome as it is hit and miss. Hopefully, in the future, they'd be able to automatically identify which is which. Nevertheless I'm glad to know it worked. 🥰
