Good Lock now supports the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and its iris scanner

Samsung’s Good Lock app, a replacement home screen available for Samsung Galaxy smartphones, has recently received a notable update.

Samsung Good Lock v 24.0.12 introduces support for the Galaxy Note 7 and its new type of biometric security feature, the iris scanner. Download the Good Lock replacement lock screen from the Galaxy Apps Store on your brand new Galaxy Note 7 and you’ll be able to unlock your handset with your eyes in the same way that you can from the standard lock screen that's pre-installed on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.

Aside from including the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in the list of supported devices, the same update also introduces a range of new features. For instance, users can now include or exclude Keep notifications from their lockscreen or have the status bar icons of categorized notifications show up into a single category icon. Furthermore, the update also solves some known bugs.

If you want to install the update, find Good Lock in the Samsung Galaxy Apps Store and tap the Update button.
