I really like the convenience of using fingerprint unlock for lockscreen and password manager. I do however don’t like the thought of being forced to unlock both physically.

I use Android with GrapheneOS.

I have set up lockdown, but it takes some time to hold the power button and then click lockdown.

Any creative solutions?

    I use Paranoid’s Pal, a similar app. It’s great. In addition to locking in response to motion, I have it set to automatically lock the phone a few minutes after the screen turns off.

      Isn’t the default behaviour of phones to lock as soon as the screen turns off?

        You can set your phone to do that, of course, but I prefer not to have to unlock mine when I’ve just used it.

        Im not an android dev but I think the difference here is it’s a secure lock. Which means that encryption is engaged and requires the decryption string to unlock which means that biometrics are not asked for.

      This also seems nice. I’ll probably test this one as well. I like the lock after x amount of time feature. The pictures have max 15 minutes, so that might be too little, but maybe it’ll work
