Since the launch of Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro, several users have had to complain about the fingerprint sensor of the new smartphones of the Mountain View company. Users accustomed to ultrasonic sensors, in fact, immediately noticed a reduced release speed compared to that offered by the optical reader: according to Google, in fact, the “slowness” of the sensor depends on the algorithms and security systems used in it.
In some cases, however, as the same company underlines on the official support page, the problems related to an incorrect reading of the fingerprint could also depend on the type of protective film used on Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 6 Pro. In this regard, the Mountain View company points out the following: If your fingerprint is not scanned, it could be because of the screen protection film. Make sure you are using a certified Made for Google screen protector. The Made for Google certified brands for Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6 are Zagg, Otterbox and Panzerglass.
