My device is a sony zx1 compact, android 9.
I installed a shelly wifi relay on the shutter motor that allows me to command the shutter to be closed and opened by voice, but every time I say "google, close the shutter" he replies that first I have to unlock the phone (unlock by fingerprint digital in my case).
Is it possible to give voice command without unlocking the phone?

You haven't told us which device but as the response the phone gives is for you to unlock it then that is what you must do.

Thanks. Whereas the phone doesn't need to be unlocked for certain items eg Email, including personal results from Gmail, like flight reservations and bills
Google Calendar
Contacts
Reminders
Memory aids
Shopping lists
It does need to be unlocked to open other apps, so I'm afraid, it's not possible
