Summary:The described embodiments perform a proximity unlock operation. For the proximity unlock operation, a first electronic device in a locked operating state detects that an authorized second electronic device is in proximity to the first electronic device. Based on detecting the authorized second electronic device in proximity to the first electronic device, the first electronic device is transited from a locked operating state to an unlocked operating state. In the described embodiments, the transition to the unlocked operating state occurs without the user performing a manual authentication step that is performed in existing electronic devices to cause the transition from the locked operating state to the unlocked operating state. 설명되는 실시형태들은 근접 잠금해제 동작을 수행한다. 근접 잠금해제 동작을 위해, 잠겨진 동작 상태의 제1의 전자 디바이스는 인가된 제2의 전자 디바이스가 제1의 전자 디바이스에 근접하고 있다는 것을 검출한다. 제1의 전자 디바이스에 근접하는 인가된 제2의 전자 디바이스를 검출하는 것에 기초하여, 제1의 전자 디바이스는 잠겨진 동작 상태로부터 잠금해제된 동작 상태로 전환한다. 설명되는 실시형태들에서, 잠금해제된 동작 상태로의 전환은, 잠겨진 동작 상태로부터 잠금해제된 동작 상태로의 전환을 야기하기 위해 기존 전자 디바이스들에서 수행되는 수동의 인증 단계를 유저가 수행하지 않고도 발생한다.
