Implementation of biometric authentication
First Claim
1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a display;
a biometric sensor at a first portion of the electronic device;
one or more processors; and
memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for;
while the device is locked, detecting the existence of an error condition that prevents the biometric sensor from obtaining biometric information about a user of the device;
in response to detecting the existence of the error condition, concurrently displaying, on the display;
a first error indication in a first region of a user interface; and
a second error indication, wherein the second error indication is displayed at a location that is proximate to the first portion of the electronic device, including;
in accordance with a determination that the user interface of the electronic device is in a first orientation relative to the biometric sensor, displaying the second error indication at a first location in the user interface that is proximate to the first portion of the electronic device; and
in accordance with a determination that the user interface of the electronic device is in a second orientation relative to the biometric sensor, displaying the second error indication at a second location in the user interface that is proximate to the first portion of the electronic device, the first orientation being different from the second orientation; and
after the error condition has been corrected, obtaining biometric information about a user of the device, and in response to obtaining the biometric information about the user of the device, in accordance with a determination that the biometric information matches enrolled biometric information, unlocking the device and displaying an indication that the device has been unlocked in the first region of the user interface.
