How to set pin/pattern only to unlock and fingerprint only for apps?

Is there a way to disable fingerprint to unlock device (and use a pattern/password/pin to unlock the phone) and still be able to use the fingerprint in apps?

To my knowledge, that is not possible unless the app itself has that feature.
However, you can use an app that provide fingerprint lock to your apps.

xposed ? any one tried it?

After 720 hours I got my device unlocked and rooted with magisk .
My question if there is anyone tried xposed ?

I have and use. Works on GSI/ROMs based on AOSP/LOS on Android 8.1
On ROMs based MIUI not working and make bootloop.

Thanks for replying
I found someone using v90 beta2 on miui but I will wait
Thanks again

On MIUI based Android 8.1 or 8.0 ?, because it is difference.

Mi Pad 4 only got 8.1 AFAIK....

Yes, u have absolutely right @Crescendo Xenomorph.
I meant that Xposed framework works on devices with MIUI 9 based on Android 8.0 (@v90 beta2).
I have not seen Xposed work on MIUI 9 based on Android 8.1 on any of Mi devices.
As you suggest in that case, it will not work on Mi Pad 4 yet.

But strangely, some users reporting success with MIUI 10 beta from xiaomi.eu, via magisk...
But I hold back from 10 as it got security issue with everyone being able to do anything to quick toggle on locked phone...

Maybe to be successful it matters the version we install ?. Systemless by topjohnwu or System by rovo89.

Hello,
Unlock bootloader first and update it to emui 8.
you could then try using any gsi of your choice.
known issues : volte doesn't work. If you messed up installation, camera doesn't work (fresh installation can fix this).
