Pretty sure this is not true. That’s how apple’s fingerprint scanners work. On android the fingerprint data is stored either in the tpm or a part of the storage encrypted by it.

I mean that I don’t know what part of my comment is “not true”. I welcome corrections, I just don’t see what is being corrected here.
