    What phone unlocks with biometric on startup? I have to input my password any time I restart.

      Not sure if I wasn’t clear, but I said:

      The only thing turning your phone off achieves it leaving it encrypted which (among other things) means bio-metrics won’t work.

      By that I meant on boot your phone is encrypted, and bio-metrics can’t decrypt it, you need the password.
