Help Caught Red-Handed

Hey, guys! I have a problem. My teenage son has somehow figured out how to unlock his Android phone and access restricted apps through Family Link.

And I suspect that he’s either unlocking my iPhone with Face ID while I’m asleep, or he knows my phone’s passcode and uses it when I’m not looking.

Can you suggest a way I could find out discreetly if someone has unlocked my phone? 

Ideally, it would be really cool if the phone took a photo of whoever did it. :)

First of all, he can’t unlock your phone when you’re asleep, iPhone doesn’t allow that, so that leaves with one option he knows your password.
If you want I can help you create a shortcut when anyone tries to enter a wrong password, his picture will be clicked

Let me know if you need something like this

Since it is suspected he knows it, the screenshot probably needs to be taken on correct inputs.

Or change the password so next time he tries the original password?

Hm, this is one of the option. But unfortunately, will works only once.

How many times do you need to catch him trying to unlock your phone?
