Abstract

A system can include a mobile computing device and a wearable computing device. The wearable computing device can include a sensor that outputs an indication that the wearable computing device is being worn. In some examples, one or both of the devices can be operable to determine that the devices are within a threshold distance of each other. Responsive to receiving the indications that the wearable computing device is being worn and the devices are within the threshold distance of each other, one or both of the devices can be operable to change an access mode of computing environment provided by the respective device from a reduced access mode to an increased access mode.
