Swipe to unlock, pin required

[rflores5432]

I have fingerprint and face unlock set up. With my ultra, whenever it sits untouched for several hours, especially overnight, it always makes me swipe to unlock and use my pin rather than give me the option for fingerprint or face scan. Not sure if I have something set up wrong or if this is the way it is now. With my S9+, it would never ask this unless the phone was restarted.

Wowz just noticed someone else asked about this same exact question a couple hours hour. What are the chances? Sorry for posting about this again. I received my answers from. The other post.

You may not have seen my response there either -- check to see if your phone is doing a scheduled restart every night: https://thecellguide.com/schedule-auto-restart-on-galaxy-s20-13176

This is normal andriod security feature that cant be disabled and happens at certain times especially you leave it untouched for more then few hours .
