Well this is interesting. I plugged my phone into my computer to pull some photos off of it and I just happen to start browsing it via Windows Explorer since the device shows up there. Imagine my surprise when I saw things that were in my Hidden folder show up clear as day. It seems that lock is only at an application level and just browsing the file system it’s there to see.

Does anyone else experience something similar? Is there a note I missed that it’s still be available via other means?

    Huh… TIL. You just have to fail it like 4-5 times and it switches to a passcode prompt.

      I wish there was a setting to only allow Face ID or your full AppleID password.
