Has anyone faced issues with the fingerprint scanner lately? I just noticed that there is a frequent issue where I cannot unlock and open my phone via fingerprint while the screen is off.

I tried toggling the "Fingerprint Always On" feature on and off, but doesn't solve the issue. Screenshot_20211112-093614_Settings_11331.jpgScreenshot_20211112-093654_Settings_11332.jpg
