I noticed another user already proposed this same request (Stay on lock screen after fingerprint unlock - Samsung Community) over a year ago, but the feature still hasn't been added. One UI is a system I really love, yet this function is extremely important for devices integrated with touch fingerprint recognition – like the Galaxy Z Fold7.
When I'm out and about holding the phone, the screen lights up and my finger often rests right on the fingerprint sensor. This causes the phone to unlock automatically and go straight to the home screen without me even noticing while walking. It would be much more convenient if the phone didn't directly enter the home screen after fingerprint authentication.
I'm re-submitting this request. Thank you!
 
Let me add a second usage scenario. When you place the phone on a table, sometimes you just want to double-tap the screen to wake it up and glance at the notification content. But right now, I have to unlock the phone to view the details. Using the fingerprint unlock takes me straight to the home screen, while all I want is to stay on the lock screen to check the notifications. That’s why I end up having to pick up the phone, use face recognition to unlock it (without entering the home screen), check the notifications, and then put it back down again.
Please don’t suggest the setting that allows viewing lock screen notifications without unlocking.
 
My final request is to add an option for fingerprint unlock: "Do not go to the home screen after unlocking", just like the face unlock feature. I hope One UI will keep getting better and more user-friendly. Thank you.

You shouldn't expect people to click a link to understand what you are asking for.

Your want is a sensible one, especially just to expand notifications without having to go to the homescreen first.

I’m just stating the facts—“some users have raised this request before”. What’s the problem here? That’s not the point, is it? The key point is that I’ve clearly expressed my suggestion.

Geez, if you can't seem to comprehend that you should have written your wants to begin with, then had the link, see, I not the only one. You did not stae any facts in your post. What part of that do you not understand! It's not about your want, it is how you went about it. You wanted the reader to do all the work for you to understand your want. If you can't see it from the readers point of view, I can't help you there.

“My final request is to add an option for fingerprint unlock: "Do not go to the home screen after unlocking", just like the face unlock feature. I hope One UI will keep getting better and more user-friendly. Thank you.” You didn’t even read my post all the way through! Did you see this sentence of mine?

You accuse people of not reading your entire post, but you conveniently forget that you edited your post to add the final two paragraphs *after* people had already read the original post.  You are still making your request in the wrong place. As you have been told repeatedly before, the only proper place to make your request is directly to the developers through the feedback link in the support tab of the members app.
