I recently saw that the phone case be locked behind both a fingerprint and a pin. When I set this up, lock my phone, click the power button the phone asks for a fingerprint, if I just touch the screen like 3 times with my knuckles for example im able to bypass the fingerprint and unclock the phone with just the PIN. Please advice
Fingerprint + PIN (2FA) not working

You mean that you can unlock your device with your main PIN in this way? That's as designed. 2FA unlock does not prevent you from unlocking your device using your main device credentials.
What is the point of adding the fingerprint as a 2fa then if the potentail thief only need the pin?
Yeah but I still cant unlock the phone with just the fingerprint for easy unlock. After giving my fingerprint I still need the pin so basically:
The phone asks for fingerprint then the pin.
If I give my fingerprint it will then need the pin.
If I bypass the fingerprint with for example my knuckle I just need the pin.
In the setting it literally states "this pin will be required in addition to fingerprint when attempting to enter the device from the lockscreen"
This does not make sense to me
Fingerprint+PIN instead of long passphrase
You are not supposed to put the same pin you use in 2FA for the passphrase..
Aaah, omg I'm stupid! Hehe xD thank you for clarrifying!
