Force new login when fingerprint changes

So I noticed that when a new biometric login is added to an android device, Proton pass does not force a new login. This means that the devices master password/pin/​pattern acts as a masterpassword to Proton apps (not only pass) and all the data within them. This is not the case in some competitors products (for instance nord pass) which ​forces an entirely new login flow for its account when the biometrics on the device change. It also begs the question why Proton pass even bothers to give you the option to force biometric authentication for unlock (rather than pin etc) when said pin can be used to register new biometrics on the device without Proton detecting it.

From a security perspective, I see this as quite a big weakness of Proton compared to Nord.

So my polar loop seems to drain the battery super quick when it's shut off. It was at like 90% before I turned it off via app and didn't wear it for only 36 hours. Then I connected it to the power to turn it back on (only for a few seconds) but the lights didn't remain on as they should. Turns out the battery is at 3% and I first need to charge before being able to use it again. Second time I turned it off over night with 45% battery before turning off. Connecting to power next morning and again I first have to charge it for it to even work again.

Did someone have a similar experience with the loop and know what to do? Should I just keep it turned on when not wearing it to avoid this insane battery drain? Any other tips?
