Hi,  I chose to not have the finger print icon showing on my lock screen in settings. This was working up until recently where it now shows the icon.  I've also noticed that the finger print scanner doesn't work sometimes. 

Any advice besides clearing cache?

Did you disable the always on setting for fingerprints?

When you say it doesn't work sometimes, do you mean it doesn't read correctly or nothing happens?

It's not uncommon for the scanner to sometimes misread and not unlock, but it could be an issue if there's no feedback at all.

Just happened on my phone too. A emrestart fixed it. No longer showing on locked screen.

Nothing happens, its like there's no fp scanner. I'm more concerned about the icon being there to be honest. It ruins my lock screen picture

It's not an option to remove whilst it's set to unlock as far as I can tell. The only way is to disable fingerprint unlock. This is true of any Samsung, not just the S25 series.
