Abstract
A fingerprint unlocking method and a terminal are provided. The method may be applied to a terminal having an in-screen fingerprint detection function. When the terminal is in a screen-locked state, the terminal determines whether an operation of a user meets a preset condition. If the operation of the user meets the preset condition, a fingerprint recognition identifier is displayed on a touch display screen of the terminal. A display area of the fingerprint recognition identifier is an area in which fingerprint recognition can be performed. The method resolves a problem that the user cannot perform fingerprint unlocking because the user cannot see a position of a fingerprint detector.
