Opposite function #4

Can module do opposite action - ENABLE finger unlock if system was locked by 3-rd party application. In android 6.0 this module will get popularity

I don't understand your question. Normally on Android, if you manually lock (by "manually lock," I mean tapping the smart lock icon on the lock screen) you can still unlock with your fingerprint. I consider that to be a loophole, which is why I created this module.

I mean - that if i lock phone by any other app - than i can NOT use my finger to unlock phone. It's a new GOOGLE rules for 6.0 : if screen locked by 3-rd party apps - phone need to be unlocked by pin or pattern instead of finger. So idea to let system think, that it locked by system framework all the way. Hope - i'm clear.

Well, that sounds like it would be outside the scope of this module then. The purpose here is to make your phone more secure by allowing you to temporarily disable fingerprint authentication. What you're proposing is indeed the opposite.

7OH commented 8 years ago

Yes - it's idea for new module with opposite function.
