What keeps an intruder from simply adding his or her fingerprint to the biometric scan as an authorized user?

This cant be done unless the safe is already open. And if it is already open then what's the point. A internal program button must be pushed prior to accepting a new print.

You have to have it open to add new prints. So it won't add another print without being opened first.

The safe can only be programmed when it is open. If you leave it open on accident it will continue to beep at you after a certain amount of time to prevent people from programming it.

In the first place, they would have to open it and it can only be opened by preset fingerprint. It comes with a key also.

To add a code you need to press a button on the inside of the safe.. Which obviously needs to be open first before you can do it .

I've returned the item. It was opened by any fingerprint, even by no-authorized person.

I have the 5, so I don't have the new fingerprint recognition, but I've heard others say the same thing, including my sister-in-law. I think it blocks the fingerprint access panel and I believe it says something about that in an insert they shipped with the case.

No, it doesn't have have finger print option. However you can use the password option.

Not sure. I don't have the fingerprint. Disabled that. But the screen protector works rather well. I haven't had any problems with it.

There is a 4 digit key pad that you can use to instead of the biometric unit. Also the safe comes with a key back up in case the batteries die you can use the key to get into the safe.

The iPad mini with retina does not have fingerprint ID. However the screen protector on my phone does not hinder its use at all.

First, make sure when you enroll your fingerprints, you just place your finger on the window ...don't swipe it over it..it should be held still...also, I enrolled three fingers from my right hand so if one wouldn't work, one of the others might...last..make sure your finger and the device window are clear. I am assuming you used the software that came with it to enroll your fingerprints first?!

Sort of. When I first installed the case, fingerprint unlocking was a lot more fiddly. The phone kept telling me to swipe more slowly or telling me to swipe the entire fingerprint. However, once I de-registered the fingerprints and registered my fingerprints again, the problem went away and I can unlock the phone first try. (I use my thumbs rather than fingers to unlock the phone, and I think the lip at the bottom of the case was lifting the thumb away from the phone.)

You have to be able to open the safe in order to press a button allowing programming of another print. Mine works great for everyone in my family that have their prints entered, I have just one fingerprint that it doesn't always recognize. If your storing a weapon I would suggest you choose another finger. John J.

You might try reinstalling software & driver for PS5100. This is the website for downloads: http://www.zvetcobiometrics.com/Support/downloads/P5100_downloads.php. I'd download the complete package & install. Then plug in fingerprint reader.

Yes, however remember if you would like to use the finger print scanner it will not work properly.

Yes. It also comes with a key. There is also a 9v battery with plug that can be inserted from the outside to bypass the battery. You will still need your fingerprint to open the door.

This is just a finger print scanner. It utilizes software that is already on computers. So unless you have software that can specifically make use of a fingerprint scanner then the answer is no.

Unfortunately I dont know. This case was a gift to someone and they never have the fingerprint scanner on.

If the software you speak of was designed for fingerprint scanners, then it should work, as long as you install the driver from the disc that comes with the biometrics scanner.

Yes we have tried to fool it.and also my biometric safe..It does not open for photocopied fingerprints using even the best types of paper..The only thing it may open for is if you have a 3D printing machine that can mimic an exact silicone replica of your finger..It might open for that since it will have all the indentations and grooves of your finger..But then again why go through all that trouble when you can just go in someones backyard and kick through there window..or just take a sledge hammer and knock off the most toughest deadbolts........The Nextbolt to me is a better alternative to the standard dead bolt not only because of the little bit of increased security it gives ..but for the convenience it gives by not using keys..If you are looking for the ultimate security this should not be your top choice..You may want to consider getting a very good wireless Alarm system with motion sensor in every room using the best monitoring system tied directly to the police..Also you may want to setup internet survelance cameras with night vision around your premises so you can monitor your property on a daily basis.And probably half inch steel bars on every window with Ram resistant doors on every entry..This is how we use to live in South America......If you live in a bad area ..Do not buy the next bolt..Consider one of the other few options above that i listed..
