Fingerprint and PIN unlock, but only PIN unlocks it and fingerprint is always duress? That's a good idea.


At that point, just don't have biometrics configured at all. It would be waaay to easy to accidentally wipe your phone. Just have an unlock PIN and a duress PIN. You're going to be charged with destroying evidence either way if you use the duress method, so you may as well use the method that won't accidentally wipe your phone with a single misplaced finger.


The point is that you don't wipe your finger. The police wipes your finger against your will.
