When setting up a protected section on Onenote on my samsung fold6 it I enable the box that says use fingerprint next time but when I go to unlock it again it asks for the password again with the use fingerprint box still enabled. It never lets me use my fingerprint to unlock the sections. Anyone know a fix for this?

It's the version I used. Jan 2024 apk. Then update via play store. You might have to enable dev options to allow side loading apps from external locations.
