Why you STILL should not buy this phone even at $499

[modifier]

Interesting. Yes it does. but I never would of noticed because like you I don't hold my finger there. Only to unlock or swipe and then I move my finger away. So yeah not a real issue for me. wouldn't have even noticed had you not explained it out.. THANKS!!! ha ha ha

lol... NP. I'd chalk it up as user error but I'm not sure how other phones act with FPR swipe for notifications. I can't think of a situation where you'd want to swipe and touch the display at the same time since the swipe is purposefully intended to bring down the notification tray. So, maybe it's not a bug and really just user error?

Can you turn off the swipe action on the scanner?

Yes, it's disabled by default and can be enabled or disabled again in Settings > Gestures.

So I’m assuming that if you turn it off, then the issues you were describing go away?

Absolutely. It's a non-issue if the FPR swipe is disabled. The FPR is then deactivated until an app or the lock screen needs it.

That’s good news then. I actually prefer to have swipe gestures set up in Nova.
