Your comment and the one above should be shared widely these days. Everyone should know this.

On Android the lockdown option shows next to the shutdown, requires a code instead of a bio

Everyone should just not use these methods to unlock their phones in the first place. Pressing a power button 5 times, or holding a power button for 10 seconds, or pressing and holding buttons until the emergency screen appears are very easy things to do, at least until there is a cop in your face grabbing your phone and putting you in cuffs.
