Androids also have the option where you tell them not to lock if you're in your home (or other named places). Does iPhone support that?

I have an Android and don't have this option. Seems to be a manufacturer-specific feature.
It's supposed to be part of base Android 5.0+. There is a problem and workaround: https://www.computerworld.com/article/3199592/android-smart-...
Yep definitely not on my Xiaomi Android 10 phone. I can do the steps in Google Maps but that doesn't trigger the Smart Lock. Also nothing in my settings for Smart Lock. Oh well.
Yes, although home is probably the place where one tends to wear a mask the least.
Great idea. Not everybody could us it but would be great for me.
