Finger print scanner is useless A50?

[dj1891]

I've never come across a fingerprint scanner so bad.  I have 3 fingers added, it works roughly 1 out of 5 attempts, I've deleted prints, added again an no difference.  It makes using fingerprint to unlock say my bank app useless, Or fingerprint to autofill passwords again useless. 

And while I'm at it the face recognition isn't really much better, it works fine in a bright well lit area but lying in bed with say just the lamp light doesn't work.   My previous phone an Honor 8X I could lie in bed in the dark and using just the screen light from the phone it worked fine.  

Anyone else have these issues?

The only suggestion that I can make is to disable using finger print unlock on the device altogether.

Instead use the Face unlock feature.
If you have glasses make sure to have the on for the first part of the face scan process.

So you will use either Face unlock or drawing of the pattern unlock for your device and just forget about using the absolutely terrible finger print reader altogether.

The only problems here are that Face unlock is less secure and that what with Covid and having to wear a mask, well basically Face unlock is often completely useless too! 🤦‍♂️😕

Good job Samsung!
