There is pin lock too. However once the power button or home button is pressed phone says swipe phone to unlock. Pls help!

What happens when you swipe?

Issue is phone gets unlocked using swipe. In settings I have selected finger print unlock and registered 3 finger prints. I have no clue but swiping can unlock the phone still. This I found after nougat update

Do you have smart lock active?
