Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Enable biometric/pin locking: `Settings>Security & Privacy>Protect access>Enable PIN/Enable biometrics`
2. Open a chat
3. switch out of the app long enough for the biometrics timer to enable
4. switch back to the app from the activity switcher, and notice that you can see the content of the chat for a brief moment before the locker screen pops up.

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?

I expect that the locker screen entirely locks you out of seeing anything within the app until you put in the proper credentials.

#### What happened instead?

I could briefly see some content before the locker screen popped up.
