Oppo: Change the Fingerprint Unlock Animation

When you unlock your Oppo phone with the in-display fingerprint sensor, a small animation plays over the icon. If you want a different visual style instead of the default effect, ColorOS lets you switch it, though the exact options shown can differ between ColorOS versions and models.

Change Fingerprint Animation auf Oppo

The fingerprint animation on Oppo phones with an in-display fingerprint sensor plays every time you unlock the screen or confirm a payment with your finger. ColorOS lets you swap this animation for a different visual style, but the number of available styles depends on the installed ColorOS version and can vary between models.

Where to change the fingerprint animation

Open SettingsPassword & biometricsFingerprintFingerprint animationChoose an Option. Tap the style you want and it applies immediately, no restart needed.

If the menu only shows one style or none at all, your ColorOS version likely limits this feature to a single default animation. Updating the system can unlock additional styles on supported models.

Changing the animation is purely cosmetic. It does not change how fast the sensor reads your fingerprint or how sensitive it is. If unlocking feels slow or fails often, that points to a sensor calibration or screen protector issue, not the animation setting.

Frequently asked questions

Some ColorOS versions ship with a single default animation and no alternatives. Check for a system update, since newer builds sometimes add extra styles under Fingerprint animation.
