  • Samsung has confirmed that the Galaxy S23 series suffers from a fingerprint scanner bug after the One UI 6.1 update.
  • A company representative acknowledged the bug and noted that a fix was in the works.
  • There’s no word on a timeline for this fix to be released to users.

Samsung Galaxy S23 series users discovered a rather annoying fingerprint scanner bug after recently updating to One UI 6.1. Users reported that the fingerprint scanner took multiple taps to unlock or that it took a few seconds to respond.

Fortunately, Samsung has now confirmed on its Korean Community forum that it’s aware of this bug and that it’s working on a fix.
