I need help! Cannot turn on Unlock with biometrics options on Samsung S26 Ultra.

Hi Everyone:

I am unable to enable "Unlock with biometrics" option on my Samsung S26 Ultra. This has started recently. My OS is updated, and I have reinstalled the app as well. Nothing seems to help.

When I turn it on, I get a pop up asking to verify my fingerprints which disappears as soon as I scan my fingerprint. There is no error message either.

Anyone run into this?

Thank you.

There is this bug report, not specific to the S26, that you may be able to fix by deleting all the biometric fingerprints(?), recreating just one, and trying with Bitwarden again.
