  That's not Amazon's problem, but your problem, and apparently by
choice.

  If you don't want to lock your phone, don't put any sensitive apps on
it. And while you're at it, turn off any syncing between devices in your
web-browser(s).

  FYI, if you use fingerprint unlock, unlocking you phone is hardly any
hassle. In order to use it, you have to touch it, right? So touch it in
the right spot, 'problem' solved. And most phones have facilities to not
need unlocking (for example on-body, at specific places, near trusted
devices, extended auto-lock time, etc.).
