Using a display fingerprint sensor is straightforward. You typically place your finger on a designated area of your phone's screen to unlock it.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Locate the Sensor Area: Most phones with in-display fingerprint sensors will indicate the sensor's location, usually with an icon or highlighted area on the screen, often near the bottom.
-
Place Your Finger: Position your finger firmly and directly over the highlighted area. Make sure your finger covers the entire scanning region.
-
Hold Steady: Keep your finger still for a brief moment while the sensor scans your fingerprint.
-
Authentication: The sensor then captures an image of your fingerprint and compares it to the biometric data stored on your phone during setup.
-
Unlock: If the scanned fingerprint matches the stored data, your phone unlocks instantly.
In essence, the display fingerprint sensor works by taking a snapshot of your fingerprint when you place your finger over the designated area of the screen and matching it to the biometric data stored on your phone.
Keep in mind that factors like screen protectors, oily or wet fingers, and the angle of your finger can sometimes affect the sensor's accuracy. Make sure the screen is clean and your finger is dry for optimal performance.
