galaxy s6 doesn't use fingerprint to unlock

I have my phone set to fingerprint unlock but it says to swipe to unlock. Only after I restart it it asks for my fingerprint. I want it to stay fingerprint to unlock. Please help!

did you by change also setup a trusted device/location? I have my Android Wear watch set as a trusted device and as long as its paired with my S6 it doesn't require me to use my fingerprint.
