I have so many important apps using fingerprints. I will be a headache if I have to retrain these apps with a new phone model.

@fredhenk Yes you will need to rescan your fingerprint on the new phone. IME properly secure apps will force you to login via password on a new device before it will allow you to enable biometric (fingerprint) access.
