Samsung Galaxy S10 software update improves fingerprint recognition

Do you have a Galaxy S10 or S10+? An important update is imminent your way. A number of S10 owners have been complaining about the on-screen fingerprint reader the past few weeks since Samsung released the latest premium flagship smartphone. The South Korean tech giant dedicated that regular software updates will be obtainable to further optimize performance and dependability. The next update will, hopefully, solve whatever problems about the ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanning tech Samsung implemented on the latest Galaxy devices.

It seems the in-display fingerprint reader isn’t working as correct as it should be, at least, for some Galaxy S10 owners. The Qualcomm-made feature has been performing up or may have been slow at times according to several early S10 adopters.

There is now a comparison between the iris verification and the in-display fingerprint reader. The iris scanner is said to be safer but others persevere the ultrasonic sensor is more secure.

We can’t say which one is truly safe but the question is more about the fingerprint scanner’s accuracy and consistency. You see, it doesn’t work well on some occasions.

The ultrasonic fingerprint scanner works by detecting blood flow within the finger. What happens  is that the reader can’t detect mainly when skin is dry or when your fingerprint has a scratch.

Samsung is rolling out the Galaxy S10 software update to perk up accuracy. It is recommended you download and run the update ASAP to stop problems in the future.
