Biometric authentication offers a convenient and secure way to unlock devices and access sensitive information. However, there's always room for improvement to enhance user experience without compromising security.

Two key areas where enhancements could be made are:

1. **Skipping Confirmation Popup:** While the current biometric confirmation popup adds an extra layer of security, it can be repetitive and cumbersome. Similar to solutions implemented in apps like Chrome Password Manager and WhatsApp, offering an option to skip the confirmation popup for trusted scenarios would streamline the authentication process. This could involve factors like a specific app context, a consistent device usage pattern, or a pre-set duration for skipping the popup.

2. **Switching to the New Biometrics Popup:** Some users may prefer the experience of the newly designed biometric popup, even for face unlock. Similar to Chrome Password Manager's implementation, allowing users to toggle between the existing and new biometric popups would give them flexibility based on personal preferences.

A possible approach to exploring these enhancements could involve implementing options settings within system settings or app-specific configurations. Implementing such functionalities, inspired by successful solutions like
this open-source project, can help create a more secure and user-friendly biometric authentication experience.
