But locking/resetting your phone should be an urgent thing, if you suspect the police will take it. Apple also does this if you hit the power button 5 times fast.
Samsung phones have a lockdown mode you can get to when you keep the power button pressed (like when you want to shut down).
The legal situation is the same here in Germany - fingerprint unlock can be forced, regular pin or other measures not.

FaceID can also be forced, they aren’t allowed to force you to give up anything you “know” as in pin/password/pattern etc.
