I'm on Android 13 not 14 and I've seen reports a few months ago about this happening for 14.

I've got no option to update or roll back and all fingerprint related settings and the fingerprint functionality have just vanished as if it's not being detected at all.

very frustrating trying to remember passwords for all sorts of apps that expect biometric login.

anyone else see this or have a fix for it?

Just wanted to say that it's not happening to me. Biometrics seem fine for me on my 6.

Not sure what would cause that to break on your end. Good luck tho.

I've had the fingerprint option disappear when a module fails, specifically on my Moto Z Force. Possible the module is broken? Maybe try a DSU and see if it works in there

I've installed the update on my P6 and the fingerprint scanner is working just fine.
