Navigate to and open Settings, and then tap General management. Swipe to and tap Reset, and then tap Reset all settings. Review the information, and then tap Reset settings. Tap Reset to confirm.

I noticed I have to peridically, bimonthly), redo my left thumbprint (the fingerprint I use 95% of the time).
Other fingerprints I have set always work and I never have to reset them. The one I use all the time works perfectly for a month or two then becomes less and less dependable until I redo it.
I have even tried saving my left thumbprint on 2 or 3 of the 4 settings but after a few months it doesn't work dependably.
It doesn't matter if I moisturize because my fingers are oily anyway as observed by fingerprints all over my screen!
