Using password managers and 2FA with passwords can be a slow and boring process, if you can unlock with fingerprint is much faster and frictionless, however I dont want my provider to know my fingerprints (samsung) is there a way to achieve this?

FYI the fingerprints are stored and processed locally through a secure element, which the OS relies on to approve or deny access.

They never leave the device.
