    CM Locker is a very popular lockscreen app for Android devices that brings quite a lot of features while focusing on privacy protection, it's pattern and password unlock features can be used to control access to the device. A new update has been released for this app which makes CM Locker the first app of its kind to support the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge's fingerprint sensor. People who like this app and want to use it on their new Samsung flagship can now continue to use the fingerprint sensor to control access to their device.

    One of the main uses of the fingerprint sensor on the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge is to control device access, however if users install a lockscreen app that doesn't support it the feature will be of no use to them. This is why CM Locker has been updated to ensure that its users can continue to take advantage of the fingerprint sensor on Samsung's new handsets. The existing password and pattern unlock features of the app will remain available to users as well. CM Locker's other features include Intruder Selfie which automatically snaps a picture using the front camera when someone enters a wrong password, music control optimized for one-hand operation, camera shortcut and more.

    CM Locker is a free app available to download right away from the Google Play Store.
