It allowed you to pair the device with a compatible Galaxy smartphone, particularly one that has a fingerprint sensor. Once you’ve paired the two, you only need to tap the phone to your tablet and use the sensor of the former to unlock the latter.
When the next Windows 10 update comes along, the Samsung Flow app will be available for other devices running on the platform, even if they’re not Samsung at all.

So unless it was an unauthorized reply, I guess we’re all set to wait for that update, if you’re a Windows 10 user.
