    If you are an iPhone user and want to live dangerously, at least memorize this fact:

    quickly tap the power button on the right side 5 times if you believe you are at any risk of having your phone confiscated.

    This will put the phone into emergency mode, and will require a pin before face unlock can work again.

      Good to know, I’ll pass along the information to any Apple device users that I know. Do you have any idea when that feature was implemented (iPhone 1, 2, 3, 13)?

        I don’t have a great way to verify this, but my understanding is that any iPhone that has face unlock has this feature.
