Chase is the latest bank to add fingerprint support to its Android app, following Bank of America that added support for the feature last week. Chase added Touch ID support to its iOS app last June. If you're hoping to log in to your Chase account without having to type in your password, you'll need to be running Android Marshmallow on your phone — the security feature takes advantage of the new fingerprint API introduced in the release, and isn't available on older versions of Android.
