Example of why you should not use FaceID to unlock your phone, this time from Norway: in 2022, a 28yo man filmed a uniformed police officer assault his two 26yo friends. The officer took his phone, turned it towards him to unlock it and deleted the video. https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/8J7A5w/politivolden-i-kongsberg-dette-vet-vi

@runasand that’s what the 5 power button press are for, not the best solution but that allows you to instantly force the pin!

@fuomag9 @runasand Five power button presses is for an emergency call. To lock the device and require a passcode to unlock, just press and hold the power button and one of the volume buttons simultaneously. That’s really quick and easy to do.

@thomasareed @fuomag9 @runasand I thought you could also just close your eyes

@ShaneB @thomasareed @fuomag9 @runasand in my own experiments, it – disappointingly – unlocks with my eyes closed. It does not unlock if my eyes are open but I don't look at the screen. (There's a "Require Attention for FaceID" setting.)
