Help Samsung Unlock and Bluetooth

[TheAlien]

I tend to use my phone to watch movies on my smoke breaks, using my bluetooth headset. This means locking the phone after about 15 minutes of use, then unlocking it 2 hours later. No big issue, except that when I have the bluetooth connected, I cannot unlock the phone with my fingerprint. I get these "bubbles" saying I'm connected to a bluetooth device. I then need to swipe UP on the little Lock icon, then swipe my finger to unlock the phone. Anyone know how to actually unlock the phone Using the bluetooth headset? I know, it's only one additional step swiping up the little Lock icon, but it's irritating.

Thanks in advance!!

get rid of the fingerprint unlock, I tried it for a while, and it is a PITA.... gave up on it, now back to just swipe.

Yeah, I'm coming to that conclusion as well. It works well, and kinda cool. But try doing it one-handed. Can't be done. But if I could unlock it with my bluetooth, the problem would be solved. Oh well.

Use smart lock and have your BT device as a trusted device. Then your fingerprint won't be necessary when using BT.
