Using biometric authentication for banking logins is nothing new. It adds a level of convenience with only a slight decrease in security, although I find it only a bit faster than using a PIN. Apps like PayPal and USAA have had it for some time, and Discover is finally joining the party.
Here's the official changelog:
- Use Fingerprint to log in quicker, easier and more securely on compatible Android devices
- Edit your account password within the app
- Access and download TAX documents within the app
- Enjoy an updated Bill Pay experience with streamlined design and layout enhancements
- Choose and personalize which account Alerts you’d like to receive within the app
- Transfer Money with improved functionality
As you can see, adding in fingerprint support isn't the only thing Discover has added here.
