I’m running Graphene on a Pixel 6. I lost it and someone opened it somehow and called two of my contacts to give it back.

I’m a bit confused how this even happened. When I got the phone back, they were going through my contacts. I checked app usage stats and they went through a banking app (not missing money), maps, signal, etc.

Is there a way to figure out how they even unlocked my phone?

    Is your pin simple? If you hold your phone up to the light can you see the smudge marks where your pin usually goes?

    Do you have people set up as emergency contacts via the lock screen?

      GrapheneOS also has this cool feature called Scramble PIN Layout to try and protect against guessing the pin from fingerprints on the screen.
