Detect unlock screen type on Android

Question

Is there a way to detect how actually user unlock phone? - via PIN or pattern or using swipe gesture I've googled only smth about registering Receiver with this code in onReceive()

KeyguardManager keyguardManager = 
            (KeyguardManager)context.getSystemService(Context.KEYGUARD_SERVICE);
        if (keyguardManager.isKeyguardSecure())

Answer 1

Since the Settings.Secure.getLong method is deprecated since API level 23, and that it has been replaced by the KeyGuardManager , it doesn't seem possible to retrieve the exact lock type.

As you've found out, using isDeviceSecure() is the closest information you can retrieve.
