Iris scanner?
Fingerprint?
Pass code?
Pattern?
Or none at all?
How's everyone keeping their phones secure but easily logging in when needed?

I have both iris and fingerprint active with pattern as a backup. The iris works better than I thought it would, but sometimes I have to move my glasses for it to register it. Using a case, the fingerprint scanner is not as hard to use as I would have expected, and my hands are pretty small.

For lock screen: pattern. But mostly unlocked via my watch.

For banks, Last Pass and Samsung Pay: fingerprint. Also for Samsung Pay: Iris.

I don't use anything most of the time and only activate a lock if I'm going to be somewhere that it could be a problem, which is rarely. home office so it sits on my desk completely unlocked. when I do it's pin since the scanner doesn't work for me and the fp scanner doesn't either.

I use both my four digit pin and fingerprint, I agree with the post above me. The combination works really well. I don't even have the other methods set up.

Set up all the biometrics without incident.

Use facial recognition and fingerprint.

Works flawlessly so far.

Iris, pin, and fingerprint. I use Iris most often to unlock. It works great indoors, even with glasses. When outdoors, I generally have to use my backup - pin. Fingerprint is for those apps that use/require it for quick login method.

Let's see, I use smart unlock while at the house, connected to my car's Bluetooth, and with my Gear S3 ultimately. I also have the fingerprint/ face recognition combo going with a pin as backup. Oh and I like how you don't have to hit "ok" anymore to confirm your pin!
