A method, device and a computer-readable storage medium for fingerprint recognition are provided. The method for fingerprint recognition may be applied to an electronic device including a liquid crystal display, and the liquid crystal display has fingerprint recognition sensors and optical proximity sensors. The method includes: acquiring a fingerprint recognition instruction; determining an area made up of a part of the optical proximity sensors after acquisition of the fingerprint recognition instruction, the distance between each of the part of the optical proximity sensor and a touch operation being less than a predetermined distance threshold; selecting a part of the fingerprint recognition sensors according to the area; and controlling the selected part of the fingerprint recognition sensors to perform fingerprint recognition.
