    “on Android” is a mostly useless statement. There are many flavours of it and they do not all behave the same. My phone does not have this.

      IIRC, you have to enable it on some versions of Android. I don’t see the option to disable it on my Android 15 phone but I do recall having to enable it before on older versions. A quick Google search for your version should help.

        Restarting should also disable biometrics until you put a pin in once

        I have a motorola running LineageOS and it’s available on mine. Seems like a relatively standard option, though it may need to be enabled under Settings -> System -> Buttons (or whatever it looks like on your flavor of android).
