Finger Scanner - Samsung Galaxy Note 4 User Manual

Finger Scanner

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 three fingerprints. A password
is also set up as an alternative to your fingerprint.
1. From a Home screen, tap
> Device.
2. Tap Finger Scanner > Fingerprint manager.
3. Swipe your finger over the Home key to register
your first fingerprint or to continue to the next
screen.
Add a Fingerprint
If no fingerprints are registered, the manager
automatically opens the Register fingerprint screen.
Otherwise:
► Tap
Add fingerprint and follow the prompts
to register a fingerprint and password.
