Description

Would it be possible to have a setting you could turn on to lock iSH after a period of time and then unlock iSH with a PIN/Face ID?

[Blink](https://github.com/blinksh/blink) supports that and it's a small but nice security feature to have.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating iSH's iOS settings and authentication-related code, then compare how Blink handles timeout locking, PIN entry, and Face ID. Done would require an agreed design and tests covering the setting, locking period, PIN, and Face ID behavior.
