Ensure that the screen protector or the touchscreen on the fingerprint sensor area is not scratched or damaged.

If you're using a 3rd party screen protector not authorized by Samsung, its specific pattern (dot, grid, etc.), thickness, or material may affect the fingerprint recognition performance.
Check the following factors that could potentially interfere with your fingerprint recognition.

Taking your finger off the sensor too quickly could be a reason why your fingerprints are not recognized. Please try again by placing your finger on the sensor for a longer amount of time.

If your fingerprint isn't matching the fingerprint data on your device, please try again by changing the angle of your finger or by adding a new fingerprint.
Note:
We recommend registering your fingerprint in a position that feels comfortable for your finger to ensure that the fingerprint being read is identical to the one registered on the device. When re-registering your fingerprint, start at the center of the sensor and move toward the top & bottom, left & right.
You can set the fingerprint recognition operation in the off screen or AOD state as follows:
Go to Settings > Security and Privacy > Biometrics > Fingerprints > Fingerprint always on > Select your preference: [Off, Cover Screen, Main Screen (default setting), Cover and Main Screens]
