Fingerprint vs PIN for locking

Hello guys, I would like to know what is more secure from a security perspective and considering “security” as purely online security, not physical or local.

I understand that a PIN with a keylogger they could get it, but a fingerprint? Thanks.

As a security researcher, I knew this for years. Sorry to disappoint, but If you Google for the keywords “can hackers bypass biometrics” or “can malware steal fingerprint”, you will find tons of websites about this topic. This is a video that I watched one year ago.

Thank you for the provinding informations about biometrics. But is it less safe than a PIN in your opinion?

Read the article by Android Authority above. (Link #2 in my post above). By the end of the article, the article writer recommends that you use PIN or password, avoid pattern locking.
