On Lollipop the V10 used it's own fingerprint software for the lockscreen. After the MM upgrade, the Google fingerprint thing is now integrated into the system. That means now you can use your finterprints to unlock apps. A popular app that was not supported while on Lollipop works perfectly fine now:
App Lock: Fingerprint&Password by KeepSafe
If you find other apps which support fingerprint unlocking, please post it below.

Dropbox can be unlocked with a fingerprint as well. The option can be found in settings, where you set your PIN.

Appreciate the heads up about keepass2android. Works so much better than keepassdroid. Now if I could figure out how to automate the export of lastpass to a csv file I'd be set.

MaxLock (xposed) can use fingerprint too on my v10. I lock all apps I want with maxlock and i can unlock all of them using fingerprint. I was surprised when i saw it because i didn't know maxlock can be used with fingerprint. It's amazing

I heard a while ago there would be a way to bypass your lockscreen if your moto 360 is connected. Is there a way to do this through a 3rd party or root?
It's built- in in lollipop...

You can do it with "Tasker" and "Secure Settings" also, Got it running on mine.
If u have xposed framework. Install no lock home. Works with fingerprint scanner too.

Thanks, I'll have to check that one out. Here's the XDA thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-lock-home-v0-1-wifi-unlock-t2799087
Dislock (formerly Pebble Locker) from the Play Store also works. It only supports one device and does not support any lock other than pin or password, but it's free. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lukekorth.pebblelocker.
"Wear Unlock" in the app store does the job, works fine for the rest of us not on lollipop yet.

Great! Thank you. But it really doesn't work with lollipop?
Is there something we can do to run it with lp?
Edit: just found out, there's already an fingerprint app locker on lp under phone management... Works great
Exactly. Why would you need another app for it if already one is integrated.
EDIT: and it's FREE

Maybe because the integrated one lacks a lot of features?! For exemple, an app like this should have some settings to allow you to unlock all locked apps when you unlock one of the locked apps... and to set a grace period after which all aps are locked again (1-5-10 mins or when you lock the device). Like CM Locker has. The integrated app doesn't have any such settings... it's a poor implementation, I hope it will be developed in thr future OS versions...
Is it possible to use the fingerprint to quickly unlock apps, but no the phone? I'd prefer to use a pattern only to unlock the device.
Hey,
Check this one :

Works fine for me

I use MaxLock which allows you to unlock apps with Fingerprint. The problem is for apps like Lasptass for example. Fingerprint unlock won't work unless you also unlock the phone via fingerprint.
I use the free version of App Locker and like it. The pro version removes ads and I plan to do that eventually.
Hi!
Can't figure this out.
Want to unlock certain apps (Amex, Bank) via fingerprint , but don't want it for unlocking phone (just swipe is enough for me).
Is this not possible???
Thank you!!

It is possible, just download any 3rd party app locker. Most of them come with finger print support.
Not the safest option out there but Be sure to lock settings as well because someone can easily uninstall the app from app manager.
Thank you for your reply.
Maybe I did not explain myself well enough.
Some apps use the fingerprint mechanism to unlock themselves without password.
So let's say your bank app. Instead of putting the long password every time, and if the devs implemented it, you can LOGIN via fingerprint.
That's great.
The problem is that I don't see an option to disable fingerprint for unlocking the device while still using that for app login.
It works just like that on my iPhone. For some reason I either am missing something, or Android just won't allow you to do this.....

I'm getting your point. You don't want anything on your lock screen but passwords(or fingerprint) on your sensitive apps . Android doesn't natively supports it (maybe a custom ROM had this). If you can root and install Xposed (rooting can make some banking apps unusable), give max lock (Xposed module) a try. If you don't know what these are, I recommend you to rely on lockscreen (third party options aren't always safe)
Has anyone run across issues with the MobileIron SecureApps module not being found after previously working just fine on the most recent OxygenOS Beta 13?
Yes, Mine is constantly losing configs, saying its not registered but works again when a force check in is done.
You know how your work has the config set up? I just finished deploying for our work environment using android enterprise and it is working flawlessly with exception of a few add-on launchers. I run several different ROMs and it works on all of them.

I am not sure. Now that I am on OOS Beta 19 it only seems to happen much less frequently. I have found you can just go to the Secure Apps app, it will prompt you for your password, and that this is enough to get the other apps (Mail, Calendar, etc) to see the Secure Apps and allow login. My Help desk raised a ticket with MobileIron, who acknowledge that they are aware of the issue. Now that I know I can get access restored by logging into Secure Apps module, it is not a headache anymore.
Why do you use such piece of software on rooted devices?

I am not rooted. That is what the Secure App module checks.

So, mobile iron fixed this issue, I was reading through their android corner the other day. Should've posted the content here for you. When I get back to work tomorrow on Monday, I'll try and remember to post the fix.
It's pretty simple, just have to enable secureapps at startup, but can't remember where to do this.

Since I'm running AOSP, I'm not really running into any issues. I'm also using my device as a BYOD, but hopefully this helps.
I'm trying to install the [email protected] app on my device OnePlus 3 which is running on Oxygen OS 5 (Android 8.0.0), I'm getting similar error message. With Oxygen OS 5 there is no option to Enable Secure App Manager or modify App Auto Launch settings. What is the work around? Please help.

I checked the mobile iron forums and have not seen a work around for Oreo. Strange however, I have it installed and everything is running fine. Are you using the device in a BYOD environment or in a corporate owned state?
A lot of [email protected] has to do with the way it is set up (phone to server), so without knowing all of this information, I can't necessarily recommend any fixes.
Can you throw up some app settings and screen shots by chance? Please blur out any information before hand that is no one else should know.
