Fingerprint recognition
Fingerprint recognition overview
You must register your fingerprint on your device first before using the
fingerprint recognition function.
You can use the fingerprint recognition function in the following cases:
• To unlock the screen.
• To view the locked content in Gallery or QuickMemo+.
• Confirm a purchase by signing in to an app or identifying yourself with
your fingerprint.
• Your fingerprint can be used by the device for user identification. Very
similar fingerprints from different users may be recognized by the
fingerprint sensor as the same fingerprint. To ensure security, set the
screen lock using a pattern, PIN or Password.
Precautions for fingerprint recognition
Fingerprint recognition accuracy may decrease due to a number of
reasons. To maximize the recognition accuracy, check the following before
using the device.
• Ensure that the fingerprint sensor is not damaged by a metallic object,
such as coin or key.
• When water, dust or other foreign substance is on the fingerprint
sensor or your finger, the fingerprint registration or recognition may
not work. Clean and dry your finger before using the fingerprint sensor.
• A fingerprint may not be recognized properly if the surface of your
finger has a scar or is not smooth due to being soaked in water.
• If you bend your finger or use the fingertip only, your fingerprint may
not be recognized. Make sure that your finger covers the entire surface
of the fingerprint sensor.
Custom-designed Features16
• Scan only one finger for each registration. Scanning more than one
finger may affect fingerprint registration and recognition.
• The device may generate static electricity if the surrounding air is dry.
If the surrounding air is dry, avoid scanning fingerprints, or touch a
metallic object, such as coin or key, to remove static electricity before
scanning fingerprints.
Registering fingerprints
You can register and save your fingerprint on the device to use fingerprint
identification.

fingerprints.

Face recognition
Face recognition overview
You can unlock the screen by using face recognition.
• This feature may be more vulnerable to security than the other screen
locks, such as a Pattern, PIN, and Password.
• When a similar face or a photo of your face is used, the screen may be
unlocked.
• The recognized facial data is securely stored in your device.
• If the device cannot detect your face, or you forgot the screen lock set
for your device, visit the nearest LG Customer Service Center with your
device and ID card.
• To save power, the face recognition feature will not work when the
battery level is below 5%.
Precautions for face recognition
Face recognition accuracy may decrease in the following cases. To increase
its accuracy, check the following before using the device.
• When your face is covered with a hat, eyeglasses, or mask, or your face
is significantly different due to heavy makeup or beard.
• When there are fingerprints or foreign substances on the front of the
camera lens, or your device cannot detect your face due to excessively
bright or dark conditions.
