Don't use fingerprint to unlock phone. They can force your fingerprint, but they can't force your password .... So just use a password. Problem solved

  My original comment: Restart your phone if they ask for it. Then it will need a passcode and can't be unlocked by a fingerprint
- They can beat the shit out of you - along with the password
