Fingerprint Scanner You can quickly unlock your phone and open apps using your fingerprint. You can add up to three fingerprints to use for unlocking the phone and launching apps. When setting up and using the fingerprint scanner, follow these tips: ● Move your hand as you swipe the finger across the scanner, to avoid curling or pointing your finger. ● Swipe vertically, not horizontally across the scanner. ● Make sure your finger is dry and clean. ● Don't swipe too quickly or slowly. ● Make sure you're not pressing too hard (or lightly). Add a Fingerprint If you didn't add your fingerprint when you first set up your phone, you can add it in Settings. 1. With two fingers, swipe down from the status bar, and then touch > Fingerprint scan. 2. Touch CONTINUE. 3. Choose which finger you want to use and touch CONTINUE. 4. Swipe your finger down the scanner. You'll need to swipe it four times to register your fingerprint. Tip: 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, touch CONTINUE. 6. Enter and confirm a backup password to be used in the event the phone doesn't recognize your fingerprint. Note: To change the backup password in the future, swipe down the status bar with two fingers, and then touch > Fingerprint scan > Change backup password. Tools and Calendar 191
