About the Fingerprint sensor
You can add an extra layer of security, quickly open apps, and navigate HTC One max
using your fingerprint. You can add up to three fingerprints to use for unlocking the
phone and launching apps.
When setting up and using the fingerprint sensor, follow these tips:
§ Move your hand as you swipe the finger across the sensor, to avoid curling or
pointing your finger.
§ Swipe vertically, not horizontally across the sensor.
§ Make sure your finger is dry and clean.
§ Don't swipe too quickly or slowly.
§ Make sure you're not pressing too hard (or lightly).

If you didn't add your fingerprint when you first set up HTC One max, you can add it
in Settings.

2. Tap Continue.
