Use System Passcode For Authentication

Viewed 5812

I cannot find an API that will allow me to tap into the password/pin/pattern the user has set up on an Android device for authentication in my app.

There is a Fingerprint Authentication API that I can use to ask Android to authenticate a user, but there is no passcode API to tap into the password/pin/pattern instead of fingerprint.

Is there a way to ask Android to authenticate in my app based upon the password/pin/pattern the user already has set up?
