Can't stand the in screen fingerprint reader

[howie411]

If I have one beef with the Note 10+ its the Fingerprint reader. Can't stand it. Half the time it doesn't register and having to push on the screen in the exact location is a pain. On the Note 9 and even the Note 8 it was so simple. You just moved your finger on the sensor. I've gone to using the face scanner because I can't stand the fingerprint reader and I know that isn't even secure.

I'm having little trouble with it. Try rescanning your fingerprint, and make sure you get plenty of variety in the position of your finger during the scans. If your haven't applied the Aug 1 security level patch, I think that helps.

Try registering the same finger several times.

Only trouble I have is just getting the right spot, as days go on I get better at putting my finger in the right spot.

I hated the Note 9 because I had to pick my phone up constantly to unlock it or put my pin in. Since I have apps for work that unlock via fingerprint, I had to pick my phone up just to open them.
