Apple iOS has a function where with a long press on an application you can select additional login requirements- Face ID to open the SMS app for example.

I suppose this has been introduced with iOS 18, yes?
Haven't upgraded yet, but would like to know - with this feature enabled, do you literally have to close, say, the messages app every time single time after you used it, for this to work / so it asks for authentification next time?

No, you don’t need to close the app, just taking it off the screen into the background will trigger Face ID auth (and you can’t see the contents of the app in your non-active screens nor your notifications either)
