6.13 How do I unlock the screen using my fingerprint?
To unlock the screen, slightly press your finger against the sensor. Your phone unlocks in an
instant.
6.14 How do I add or register my fingerprint?
1. On the home screen, touch Settings.
2. Under Security, touch Fingerprint.
3. Set a screen unlock PIN or password as the backup unlock mode.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to register your fingerprint. You need to register it several
times to ensure its information is complete.
You can register fingerprints of up to five fingers.
6.15 Can anyone access my fingerprint information?
Your fingerprint information is stored independently within the hardware package. No one
can read the fingerprint information, and the fingerprint information will not be uploaded to
any server. This storage mechanism contributed to our cooperation with Alipay in establishing
industrial standards for a fingerprint-based payment system.
6.16 What should I do to the registered fingerprints if I
want to give my phone to a friend?
You can delete the fingerprints and let your friend register new ones.
6.17 Why do I have to record my fingerprint for several
times?
Your phone can record a large area of your fingerprint when you register it several times at
different angles, making it easier for your phone to read. For example: If you register four
different areas of your fingerprint, you can use any one of them to unlock your phone.
When you register your fingerprint, the screen will tell you to record the center and edges of
your finger several times. Your phone has a fingerprint identification angle of 360 degrees.
Press your finger against the sensor at any angle to register it.
Multiple fingerprint images will be registered. If any image does not register, your phone will
ask you to do it again.
2. The fingerprint sensor is pressure-sensitive. There is a weak signal surrounding the
depressed fingerprint identification area. When you press your finger against this area, your
fingerprint is transmitted to the contact surface for identification.
