Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: How to Adjust Automatic Screen Lock Delay in Android 5.1.1 Lollipop

By default, when you use one of the screen lock types with security lock feature(pattern, direction lock, PIN, password, or fingerprints) and the screen is off automatically, your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge will auto lock the screen after the screen lock delay is over. When needed, you can adjust the delay to a shorter period if you concern with security issue and want your phone to auto lock the screen immediately or a few seconds after it automatically turns off, or you can set it to a longer period if you'd like to have more time to easily access your phone without performing the screen lock type after the screen automatically turns off.
