Adding a fingerprint
If you didn't add your fingerprint when you first set up HTC One max, you can add it
in Settings.
1. Go to Settings, and then tap Fingerprint scan.
2. Tap Continue.
3. Choose which finger you want to use.
4. Swipe your finger down the scanner. You'll need to swipe it four times to
register your fingerprint.
Make sure to swipe down the center of the scanner with the pad of your finger, not
just the tip.
5. After you've successfully recorded your fingerprint, tap Continue.
6. Enter and confirm a backup password to be used in the event the phone doesn't
recognize your fingerprint.
7. If you want to launch an app automatically after unlocking your phone, tap OK
and choose the app you want.
To change the backup password in the future, go to Settings and tap Fingerprint
scan > Change backup password.
