I have Nokia 6.1 plus phone with Android Oreo 8.1.0. When I bought my phone I set up the smart lock feature. And now when I go to the smart lock settings, no settings in the smart lock just only the smart lock title and help option. So how can I get smart lock settings back

Make Sure Your Location Is Updated
There's a chance that your phone simply hasn't updated its location status in a while. If this is the case, Smart Lock will stop working, as Trusted Places needs a fairly recent location report before it will unlock your phone.

So to get lock on your location, open Google Maps and tap the compass icon near the bottom-right corner. When the screen zooms over your current location (the blue dot in Google Maps), your phone will have an updated location report.

Hope this helps,
