    It might have changed. When I restart my phone it just goes to the pattern unlock screen.

      Pattern unlock is effectively the same as a pin, just without numbers. You can use the pattern unlock without the PIN code. But fingerprint unlock is a secondary unlock type on top of the primary one which is a PIN code. And no, they haven’t changed it, if you reboot the phone, a pin code is required first in order for it to boot up.

        Does pattern unlock hold up against cops though? I don’t think I’ve seen it said that it does. But I’m not really knowledgeable about it.
