Curious if this is just my s20 Ultra or it's a system fault. I have programmed my power button to open the camera with a double click. This works perfectly fine, as it should, however it does then allow me to then use the phone as normal after exiting the camera, bypassing any of my normal biometric ID verification.

Is this a security flaw?
 
Hi, no mine doesn't do that. So I locked my phone then did the double press power button for camera, then I exited out the camera which resulted in my phone going to my lock screen requiring me to use my fingerprint to get into the phone.
 
Mine doesn't do that. If I double click the power button to open the camera and then exit the camera, I'm still stuck on the lock screen. Are you sure you don't have smart unlock set up or something?
 
Only thing I can think is that you maybe had the phone unlocked already then did the double click for camera? Or the smartlock thing like the other guy suggested?
 
Also, what's your Automatically Lock option set to? If it doesn't automatically lock until a good 5, 10, or 20 minutes after the screen turns off, then it's more likely the phone was still technically unlocked when you started up the camera.

That’s so you can get quick access to the camera when phone locked
