    For Android:

    • Open Settings
    • Search for “Lockdown”
    • Select “Show Lockdown option” from the results, or the result that most resembles that.
    • Enter your pin if required.
    • Tap the associated slider to enable Show lockdown option

     

    Now when you hold your power button, you get a “lockdown” option that disables biometrics and forces you to enter your passcode for the next unlock.

    Particularly useful for me, as I have my phone set up to always be unlocked if my watch is close enough (maybe stupid of me), but I can force lock it at any time.

      On some phones you won’t get anything when searching for “lockdown” but you most likely have it, it’s typically under Display > Lock screen > Shown lockdown option.
