They should at least be required to obtain a warrant first.
It is a two-step process.

First, is law enforcement entitled to see the contents of your phone? That is a Fourth Amendment issue.

Second, if so, are you required to “assist” them in gaining access TO your phone. That is a Fifth Amendment issue.

Because this appeal relates to a parolee, only issue two was in play in this case.
