The Galaxy S8 reminded me of a very useful but almost abandoned Android feature
From HUAWEI and Google to Samsung and Xiaomi, loads of brands offered fingerprint scanner gestures in the 2010s.


Today’s top Android phones all have in-display fingerprint sensors, and this tech has made major strides over the years. In fact, many modern high-end phones have ultrasonic in-display sensors with fast, accurate unlocking and the ability to scan wet fingers.
However, I recently went back to the Samsung Galaxy S8 while working on a different article, and I realized that I really missed fingerprint scanner gestures on old smartphones.
