How do I use my fingerprint to unlock my screen?

Once you have set up a secure screen lock such as a pattern, PIN, or password, you can set up a fingerprint scan for unlocking your phone. To add your fingerprints, follow these steps:

1. From the main screen, slide the screen up.
2. Tap the "Settings" icon.
3. Locate and tap "Biometrics and security."
4. Tap "Fingerprints."
5. Enter your current pattern, PIN, or password. Tap "Next."
6. The position of the fingerprint scanner will be displayed on your screen. Place your finger on the sensor and follow the prompts on your screen.
7. To scan additional fingerprints, tap "Add." Otherwise, tap "Done."
8. Options for face recognition will automatically be selected. To disable these options, tap the sliders to the "Off" position as needed.
