Google has announced a generic fingerprint API for Android that can be utilised by any custom apps for authorisation and not just the native Google apps. It looks like the future is just getting brighter!
Taken from the Android Developers page linked below:
"To authenticate users via fingerprint scan, get an instance of the new FingerprintManager class and call the authenticate() method."
However you must also include this permission:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT" />
If you want to find out more information then visit this URL and scroll down to Authentication:
https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0.html#fingerprint-authentication
