Running tasker on a unrooted Fairphone 5 There is a function "System Lock" which locks the phone so you have to enter the PIN. I created a task and a widget on the home screen that triggers the task

I did give tasker some extra rights via adb, which is a quite straight forward process. I think the dev even has a guide for it...
