Fingerprint scanner
←
Settings > Biometrics and security > Fingerprints
The fingerprint sensor can be used by the device to
identify you. Before you use this function to unlock the
screen, view locked content, confirm a purchase or sign
in to an app that supports fingerprint ID, you’ll need to
register your fingerprint on your device. You will be able
to register and delete fingerprints at any time.
Fingerprint data will be saved only to your phone and will
not be backed-up.
Samsung Pass
←
Settings > Biometrics and security > Samsung Pass
The Samsung Pass feature allows you to log in to a site
or app on your mobile device by using the registered
fingerprint or face recognition information in place of
a password. This will help in preventing others around
you from seeing your passwords as you enter them, and
will give you quick access to those features that support
Samsung Pass.
Encrypt SD Card
←
Settings > Biometrics and security >
Encrypt or decrypt SD card
Your device allows for an optional memory card of up
to
512GB
(not included) that can be used for additional
storage. To protect and limit access of the information on
the memory card, you can encrypt it so that it can only
be read on your device once you enter the password you
create. If you perform a factory data reset, your phone
will be unable to read the encrypted memory card. Before
initiating a Factory data reset, make sure to decrypt the
installed memory card first.
SIM Card Lock
←
Settings > Biometrics and security >
Other security settings > Set up SIM card lock
Your SIM card includes information like your phone
number and voice/data plans, which can be compromised
if the SIM card is placed into another device. To help
protect it, you can create a PIN that will lock access to the
SIM card.
