To make this method safer, the source points out that it will be possible to define a voice password, to add a little extra security step. This new feature will come with One UI 3.1 based on Android 11, the new version that will be released by the Samsung Galaxy S21. This opens the door to different business models to take advantage of this function.
Currently, much of Samsung’s catalog, especially in the mid-range, is updated to One UI 2.5, the version of the personalization layer released by the new Samsung Galaxy Note 20. In 2021, with the democratization of version 3.1, voice unlock could be a reality for everyone in the Galaxy family, as long as they update to this version.
