Both iPhone and Android have ways to disable biometrics until the next unlock via password/code.

Iirc, on iPhone, it was pushing the power button 5 (or 7?) times. On Android, long press the power button and select "lock".

I configured my Graphene OS to require both fingerprint and passcode to unlock. I also have a "duress passcode" that I can input to wipe the device.

Is it possible to setup this way;:

  1. One password gets into your first profile that is protected with a
  2. Duress passcode
  3. 2nd password/just fingerprint gets you into a 2nd profile, that is, everything you don't care about....

I haven't tried graphene but thinking about it now....

Press the power button and one of the volume buttons for 3 seconds.
