Alternative idea:intentionally register someone else's fingerprints on your phone - so when the cops arrive and find a phone lying on the couch you can plausibly say "not mine, here try my finger on it!" ;-)

(Anybody got ready access to med school cadavers with the fingerprints intact?)

I really wish you could set up functionality for each finger. Index unlocks, but thumb instantly wipes the phone.

Keeping your fingers wet will also prevent the mechanism from working.
