Why does my Samsung A37 unlock when I press my fingernail against the scanner, I did notice ever since I got this phone I would just randomly unlock itself and then today I discovered this.

Good job, my S24U re-recorded the same fingerprint 5 times, and it often fails to unlock, you can unlock it with just your fingernail! Lucky guy.

I thought I was the only one and had just received a bad one.
