I installed a screen protector for the first time on Monday. I’ve been having issues getting my fingerprint to work and just would use my pin to unlock. This morning Android popped up a notification saying “Using a screen protector? Click here to increase touch sensitivity!” Pretty awesome.

Now stop asking me to use Gemini.

    Friendly reminder if you’re in the U.S., you always want to use a PIN or password to unlock your phone. Law enforcement needs a warrant. If you use your finger print, Iris, face… they do NOT need a warrant.

      Legit question: for the average person, why would this matter? Like congrats copper, you can see my text messages to my mom, and my receipts in my email, and my pictures of my pets. If someone’s actually doing crime, then a password should be the least of their security measures.

        Imagine suddenly driving up to a police DUI check point. You’ve only had one glass of wine with dinner. But, you posted about it on IG, FB, X … or, whatever. You want the risk of letting the cops have easy access to your phone? No way!
