This is a great security feature. Is it an app?

No, it's a cat. You can tell by the ears.

There used to be an app that was a cat. It was almost definitely spyware, though.

It's a cool story

I heard some phone did that, but laptops as far as I am aware neither windows or MacOS supports it maybe some display-manager on Linux with custom patches would do it.

Windows has so many settings in local group policy editor for passwords, I'm sure there's a way to detect failed attempts with a script in task scheduler and take a picture. I don't know how myself but it's probably possible. Idk about Mac. And for Linux, you can probably have it install a tracker on the thief's phone over bluetooth...
