Just got an S23 plus.
Bought a glass screen protector but the ultrasonic
finger sensor built into the screen does not work with the glass
screen protector.

Which one is recommended?

I didn't know that people still used them. My last screen protector was
from about 2002.

I see shops around here selling them.

I like the plastic non-reflective ones. I put the last one on without a
single bubble.

Yes, that can be a problem with ultrasonic fingerprint sensors though
they are more secure, supposedly, than the 3D optical fingerprint
sensors, and of course much more secure than FaceID or capacitive 2D
fingerprint sensors.

But from what I've read, you just have to do the setup once the screen
protector is installed and it works. See
<https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BMG3Q8YN> where the text states "[Fully
Compatible with UltraSonic Fingerprint Scanner] Unlike any alternative
on the market, this Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra glass protector will work
fully with the Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanner. Simply re-scan your
fingerprint AFTER application."

false. numerous tests prove that in-screen fingerprint sensors are
*less* secure than capacitive fingerprint sensors and certainly face
id, as well as slower and less reliable.

Sadly, the reviews are not good.

It never fails that Steve gave the OP a solution (which is put the
protector on first and then set up the useless biometric marketing
gimmick), and then Steve threw in a dig against Apple's useless marketing
gimmick to which nospam dutifully replied...

*Apple's useless marketing gimmicks are better than Android's!*

If there are any _adults_ on this newsgroup, please allow me to ask
an adult question of those who do use these useless marketing gimmicks.

*Why?*

What _slum_ do you live in that you're worried that every person around you
is salivating over snatching your phone out of your hands right now?

*Whom are you so afraid of anyway?*

Why don't you trust your own wife and kids not to use your personal phone?

*Do you live in a prison cell?*

What is wrong with the _environment_ you live in that you feel you must
implement what is a mere (clever) marketing gimmick of biometric locks?

*Why do you feel desperate to lock your phone from _physical_ access?*

In summary, what's wrong with _not_ locking your phone?

*Whom are you afraid of?*

Put succinctly, what _slum_ do you live in that you feel so desperate?

Note: Trust me that I'm very well aware of "Internet" security from
hackers; which is why I'm asking this question about _physical_ security.
