Then Go back and open Fingerprint Management. Here you will be asked to enter your pattern or PIN, after that you will be asked to adjust the grip gesture. Now place your finger on finger print scanner (located on the back of the phone, as a dedicated square ring below the camera) after vibration lift your finger and repeat this by placing you finger on the same side as blinking on the fingerprint management screen. Once the process is complete, your fingerprint is accepted into the device.

You can do following things with fingerprint scanner:

1. Screen unlock

To Lock any application, open FP Lock app and verify your fingerprint by placing enrolled finger over fingerprint scanner .

Click on the lock icon in front of the app you want to lock. It will turn green.

One important thing is to remember that till date App lock will work only with default Launcher. If you will use any other Launcher then this will not work correctly.
