The fingerprint sensor is part of your screen and appears only when you need it. Use it to unlock your
phone, make fast and secure online and in-store purchases, and sign into bank and finance apps.

Anyone whose fingerprints are added to a user profile can unlock the phone and authorize purchases
with the associated Google account or apps.
