AC Question

I want to just be able to unlock my phone with my fingerprint but somehow I enabled the phone toilet me swipe and then I have to use my fingerprint. I find this a nuisance and want to disable it but I cannot figure out how, any help would be appreciated.

Has to do with your lock screen security. Go to settings>lock screen and security>secure lock settings>smart lock

If you have it set up it will show the lock icon. Maybe this is it?

This is it. It's when you have the smart lock enabled, it shows the lock icon there. Just swipe from the center of the screen and it will unlock, don't swipe on the lock, otherwise it will ask you to unlock with your method.
