Automatically ask for biometric athentication if enabled #1701

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When you open the app you're sent to a login screen where it asks you for your password/keyfile/hardware key. If you have a fingerprint reader you can click on the bottom left the "Unlock" button and it will try to read it. It would be pretty useful if there was an option to automatically prompt the user for his fingerprint if they had added one.

Clicking on the "Unlock" button is an extra step that could be skipped altogether. I'm guessing that for most people if they have enabled biometric authentication it's because they don't want to type their password, so asking them to use the fingerprint automatically would be pretty useful.

Describe the solution you'd like Automatically prompt the user for their fingerprint when opening the app.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context "Aegis" for example does this and unlocking the vault is really smooth: open the app, place your finger on the reader, done.

Sorry, apparently I'm blind, I just found the option in the settings. It's under "Device unlocking" -> "Auto-open prompt". Not sure how I missed it before
