7 Introduction
8 ------------
9
10 This sample demonstrates how you can use registered fingerprints in your app to authenticate the
11 user before proceeding some actions such as purchasing an item.
12
13 First you need to create a symmetric key in the Android Key Store using [KeyGenerator][1]
14 which can be only be used after the user has authenticated with fingerprint and pass
15 a [KeyGenParameterSpec][2].
16
17 By setting [KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder.setUserAuthenticationRequired][3] to true, you can permit
18 the use of the key only after the user authenticate it including when authenticated with the user's
19 fingerprint.
20
21 Then start listening to a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor by calling
22 [FingerprintManager.authenticate][4] with a [Cipher][5] initialized with the symmetric key created.
23 Or alternatively you can fall back to server-side verified password as an authenticator.
24
25 Once the fingerprint (or password) is verified, the
26 [FingerprintManager.AuthenticationCallback#onAuthenticationSucceeded()][6] callback is called.
