Anchor Wallet Android (Alpha 0.15) - Biometry doesn't work (no security)

Installed, imported my keys, everything works great logging in to dapps. Problem is I have zero security, “use biometry” was selected when importing (and I see it enabled in debug info), but I am never prompted to use it. If my phone is unlocked anyone can open anchor wallet and look at my private keys.

Stock Pixel 3 on Android 11.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We are uploading a fix for this today and it should be released soon.

Thanks for the quick fix. It didn’t work right away after updating, I had to clear cache/data and reimport my keys. All working now. Prompts for fingerprint before signing or showing private keys.

Awesome! Yeah each key has it’s own security level so you would have had to reimport your keys for it to start working.

just a suggestion but it would be awesome if there was QR code scanning option for importing accounts/private keys into anchor as well . Terra station on luna has this feature and it makes all the difference. thanks

We have a QR code scanning button here on Anchor Android.
