Fingerprint Single-Swipe Sign on Feature
General
This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both

characteristics in a fingerprint. However, there may be instances where
certain users are unable to register their fingerprints due to insufficient
unique characteristics in their fingerprints.
