The ability to pin apps on your screen was introduced by Google in Android 5.0 Lollipop. On the S6 you’ll find it in Settings > Lock screen and security > Other security settings where it’s listed near the bottom as Pin windows. The idea is that you can pin an app to the screen before handing your phone to someone to stop them from browsing around, it actually locks the screen to that specific app. You tap the multitasking or recent apps button at the bottom left and then look for the pin icon at the bottom right of each open app.

Samsung has taken it a little further because you can tick the Ask for Fingerprint before unpinning box when you turn it on and then hand your phone over without having to worry.
