This feature may not be available depending on the service provider or model. Fingerprint recognition uses the unique characteristics of each fingerprint to enhance the security of your device. The likelihood of the fingerprint sensor confusing two different fingerprints is very low. However, in rare cases where separate fingerprints are very similar the sensor may recognize them as identical. If you use your fingerprint as a screen lock method, your fingerprint cannot be used to unlock the screen for the first time after turning on the device. To use the device, you must unlock the screen using the pattern, PIN, or password you set when registering the fingerprint. Be careful not to forget your pattern, PIN, or password. If your fingerprint is not recognized, unlock the device using the pattern, PIN, or password you set when registering the fingerprint, and then re-register your fingerprints. If your pattern, PIN, or password is forgotten, you will not be able to use the device if you do not reset it. Samsung is not responsible for any data loss or inconvenience caused by forgotten unlock codes. If you change the screen lock method to Swipe or None, which are not secure, all of your biometric data will be deleted. For better fingerprint recognition When you scan your fingerprints on the device, be aware of the following conditions that may affect the features performance:

The device may not recognize fingerprints that are affected by wrinkles or scars. The device may not recognize fingerprints from small or thin fingers. To improve recognition performance, register the fingerprints of the fingers used most often to perform tasks on the device. The Side key has a built-in fingerprint recognition sensor. Ensure that the fingerprint recognition sensor is not scratched or damaged by metal objects, such as coins, keys, and necklaces. Covering the fingerprint recognition sensor with accessories, such as stickers, may decrease the fingerprint recognition rate. 89 Settings Ensure that the fingerprint recognition sensor and your fingers are clean and dry. If you bend your finger or use a fingertip, the device may not recognize your fingerprints. Make sure to cover the entire fingerprint recognition sensor with your finger.
