About the fingerprint scanner
You can quickly unlock the HTC One max 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).
You may not be able to set the fingerprint scanner to unlock HTC One max, if you've signed in to
an Exchange ActiveSync account that requires you to set a different screen lock option (such as
password). Check with your Exchange Server administrator if your Exchange ActiveSync
account supports the fingerprint scanner.
