I'm not sure when this changed, but yelling "whose phone is this" and "I'm being pulled over" at siri no longer disable biometrics on iOS 26.1. This means the only methods of quickly turning off biometrics are to set up SOS and tap the side button 5 times or restart your phone. Restarting is much stronger anyway since it wipes the decryption keys that are loaded after the first unlock. Plan accordingly if you use finger or face unlocks and are wary of law enforcement.
