TL;DR<\/p>\n
One UI 8.5 brings the \u201cImprove Accuracy\u201d feature from the Galaxy S26 to the S25 FE.
\nIt lets users rescan their fingerprints up to 10 times for a more reliable unlocking experience.
\nThe feature isn\u2019t available on other S25 phones so far.<\/p>\n
Among the many new features in One UI 8.5<\/a> was a security improvement that first appeared in the Galaxy S26 series. The feature allowed users to rescan their registered fingerprints to make the unlock process faster and more reliable. Now, the company seems to be expanding it to older smartphones, but surprisingly, it\u2019s made an appearance on the S25 FE before any other phone in the S25 family.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n According to an X post by user Alfat\u00fcrk<\/a>, the Galaxy S25 FE is getting the \u201cIncrease Accuracy\u201d feature for fingerprints with the One UI 8.5 update and the May security patch (via SammyGuru<\/a>).<\/p>\n The feature allows users to rescan their fingerprints up to 10 times, allowing them to unlock their phones more reliably even if their fingers aren\u2019t fully clean. It eliminates the need for workarounds, such as registering the same fingerprint multiple times, for a faster, more reliable unlocking experience.<\/p>\n The feature was expected to arrive on older smartphones with One UI 8.5. However, it wasn\u2019t rolled out with the update and seems to have been added with the May security patch.<\/p>\n It\u2019s unexpected that while the May security patch rolled out for S25 users around the same time, only the S25 FE has the new feature. It\u2019s not available on any other phone, including the flagship Galaxy S25 Ultra<\/a>.<\/p>\n We checked for the feature on our S25 Ultra and S25 Plus units with the One UI 8.5 update, and it\u2019s not available for us, either. However, it is available on our S25 FE unit with the One UI 8.5 update.<\/p>\n If you have an S25 FE with the latest update, you can rescan your fingerprints by going to the \u201cFingerprints\u201d option in settings, tapping a registered fingerprint, and selecting \u201cImprove Accuracy\u201d from the floating menu. You can then rescan your finger up to 10 times. The process can be repeated for every fingerprint registered on the device.<\/p>\n While it\u2019s surprising that Samsung rolled out the feature on the FE variant before bringing it to other S25 phones, the company could add it in a future update. It\u2019s the kind of quality-of-life improvement that can make a noticeable difference in everyday usage. I\u2019m hoping the company will bring it to other phones soon.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
