Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method and device for unlocking a terminal using a fingerprint. The method is specifically designed for terminals with an in-screen fingerprint detection function. When the terminal is locked, it checks if the user's operation meets a specific condition. If it does, a fingerprint recognition identifier is displayed on the touch screen. This identifier represents the area where the fingerprint can be recognized. This method solves the problem of users being unable to unlock their device because they cannot see the position of the fingerprint detector.


Original Abstract Submitted

A fingerprint unlocking method and a terminal are provided. The method may be applied to a terminal having an in-screen fingerprint detection function. When the terminal is in a screen-locked state, the terminal determines whether an operation of a user meets a preset condition. If the operation of the user meets the preset condition, a fingerprint recognition identifier is displayed on a touch display screen of the terminal. A display area of the fingerprint recognition identifier is an area in which fingerprint recognition can be performed. The method resolves a problem that the user cannot perform fingerprint unlocking because the user cannot see a position of a fingerprint detector.
