Fingerprints
Use fingerprint recognition as an alternative to
entering passwords in certain apps. You can also use
your fingerprint to verify your identity when logging in
to your Samsung account.
Note: Fingerprint recognition uses the unique
characteristics of each fingerprint to enhance the
security of your device. The likelihood of the fingerprint
sensor confusing even small areas of two different
fingerprints is very low. But, in rare cases, the sensor
may recognize a fingerprint that is similar to a
registered fingerprint.
Register a Fingerprint
You can register up to four fingerprints. A password
must also be set up as an alternative to your
fingerprint.
1. From a Home screen, tap Apps > Settings.
2. Tap Lock screen and security > Fingerprints.
• If no fingerprints are registered, you are
prompted to choose a secure screen lock and
scan your fingerprint. Follow the prompts to
complete setup.
• To add a fingerprint, tap Add fingerprint
and follow the prompts to register a fingerprint
and password. You must set a pattern, PIN, or
password to protect your fingerprints.
• To rename a fingerprint, tap the fingerprint,
enter a new name, and then tap Rename.
• To delete a fingerprint, tap edit, tap the
fingerprint to remove, and then tap Remove.
Confirm when prompted.
