Device settings contain the following options:
•Theme. Allows you to choose different modes for the application: light, dark, or system. Dark mode might help to decrease power consumption and lessen eye strain in low-light conditions.
•Fingerprint. Allows you to add a fingerprint to work with the app without the password or PIN code. Turn on the toggle and tap Add to add a fingerprint enrolled on the device. If the device does not have enrolled fingerprints, you will be prompted to enroll them. To go to device settings and add your fingerprint, tap Add in the pop-up window. Otherwise, tap Cancel.
