Right now "Unlock with Fingerprint" and "Unlock with PIN code" are exclusive to each other. Can we have both options enabled and either one of them can unlock the app? Normally I use fingerprint but it's not convenient when I have gloves on.

I like the way Norton App Lock does: it shows PIN unlock screen with fingerprint, and I can unlock either by using PIN or by fingerprint.

This would be helpful for times when picking up the phone isn't convenient as well.
