Hi guys,
Does anyone know why the Flip 5 is missing the fingerprint gesture for notification option? Or am I just missing something?
I loved that feature on my Z Flip 4 before that and it's actually really annoying to to not have that anymore.

Thanks

What was your previous device? 

It's because of the design of the Side Finger Print sensor, so it's no longer possible to use Gestures with it. 

The upside, should be that the device unlocks faster.

I have the Flip 4 before this and the Flip 3 before that
Interesting.. honestly, I think I'd rather a slightly slower sensor with the gesture than a faster one without haha
Thank you for the clarification though :) much appreciated

That looks like a document for the first Flip model and it had the feature. It's the Flip 5 that is missing it

The screen shot shows the relevant information, but is it available on your device?

That option is not available, at least not on my unit. Screenshot_20231006_054635_Settings.jpg
