Description
First of all, thank you for this great app!
I'm currently using a long password to unlock my key-store. Of course it would be comfortable to use a fingerprint or any other biometric method but I'm feeling that this may be too insecure.
Feature request:
Is it possible to combine a biometric method with a numeric pin which is set within the app?
Therefore not only my fingerprint will be used but also a numeric pin code to unlock the store. With this method in combination I would save a lot of time while unlocking the store but would still have a higher level of security.
Thanks for consideration!

Research direction
No files or tests are identified in the issue. Begin by locating the existing biometric and keystore unlock flow in the Android app, then review the discussion for the intended security model. Define whether both biometric authentication and a PIN are required, and document the expected unlock and fallback behavior before implementation.
