Easy-Access On The Lock Screen
In the past, Google has waffled as to whether it wants shortcuts on the Android lock screen or not. During the beta, Google added options to add both device controls and Google Pay access on the first screen you see when you turn on the phone. You’ll need to turn these on in the Lock screen settings panel, however, before you’ll see them pop up. Then, when they become available, simply tap to access rather than swiping left or right as in previous versions of the Android OS.
