I hate how every phone uses biometrics as a bypass to a pin/password instead of being used in conjunction with a pin/password. With biometric + pin, someone needs both your pin and fingerprint. And there can be a prompt for a longer “fallback” password if there is X number of incorrect attempts or at restart. Is there such a thing in Android?

I was wondering if the Android fingerprint login had been compromised since the days of the gummybear attacks. For anyone else who was wondering: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/android-phones-are-vulnerable-to-fingerprint-brute-force-attacks/
Interesting question OP, I’ll be (academically) interested in the answer.
