So the face unlock is "cool" but not secure. Would be really nice if Google would implement the ability to speak your pass code/pin. When driving I can make calls, do searches, and send texts all with my voice. Unfortunately though, I have to look at my phone to unlock it first and take my eyes off the road to do so.
I contacted a developer who said that passing information to the unlock screen wasn't possible and implied that Google would have to make the change to the OS to all voice commands to unlock the phone.
With my design hat on I'm thinking either a long press of the power button to activate the mic or tapping enter without a code to activate the mic. We would't want the mic to always activate because we don't want to always have to speak the pass code/pin. Just sometimes when we need it.
I've heard Google has a patent or something to use voice recognition to unlock the phone but that gimicky and not what would be truly helpful. Just allow us to speak the pin.
Before someone suggest that I turn off the screen lock when driving, my company (like many) force a pin unlock so I can't turn it off.
