    It is good that Apple implemented that feature from Android-based GrapheneOS. Maybe finally Google will implement it in upstream Android...

    Samsung phones already do this. Not sure if it is specific to them.

    Hmm, I see. Samsung feature is however optimization oriented and won't work trigger when sim card requires PIN after each boot. Performance optimization orient feature schedule is static while security oriented has a timer counting from last screen lock.
