Good to know

  1. The video’s narration also describes removing the phrase — long-press the text, Select all, delete it, then Done with the field empty. The recording only gets as far as Select all: the text is selected but never deleted, and the dialog is closed with the phrase still saved (Contact information still reads “Have a nice day” at the end). To actually remove it, delete the selected text and tap Done with the field empty.
  2. Contact information is meant for a phone number or email address so you can be contacted if you lose the phone — any short phrase works in the same field.
  3. This phone has no secure screen lock set (Screen lock and biometrics reads Swipe), so Extend Unlock is greyed out — that does not affect the lock screen text.
  4. The phrase is saved when you tap Done — the Lock screen and AOD page then shows it under Contact information.
