Hey Siri

I was reading this article here: https://www.macrumors.com/2018/10/14/police-advised-dont-look-at-face-id-iphones/ And I couldn’t help think that an easy solve that combines user convenience, security and apple technology could be something using a key phrase like “Hey Siri, Lockdown” which would instantly disable Face ID, implement a reserve 8 digit passcode and some other clever security features. I’m not an engineer but I am concerned about my privacy and would be interested on the thoughts of employees on such a feature?

Useful to know/spread around: From the lock screen quickly hit power 5 times for the SOS screen then dismiss it. This disables Touch/Face ID until you enter your password
