Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK Community Forum

Are you trying to stop this when the screen lock is active or whilst the screen is unlocked

While screen lock is active then any one can pull down sxreen to turn off wifi, change into plane mode, off the aound. Off bluetooth ext... There is no security on these things even screen password is in operation. Any one can chane settings.

Actually when screen lock is active you'll find that they can press on the icon but it will then take them to the password unlock screen.

Oh yea. U r right. Only aome features work all other ask for password. Thanks dude

But people can still mess with brightness and volume control.  These don't require a password.  I specifically DO NOT want the quick panel on the Lock Screen...AT ALL! 

This has been an issue since upgraded to One UI 7.  This is absolutely a stupid problem to have.

I'm afraid whilst you don't want the functionality, Feedback from many users to Samsung was that this is what users want.

There are 10's of millions of S24 devices out there so I'm afraid whilst you may not like it, many do and that's why it has been changed.

I understand this is what the users want.  What was great about Android is that we had an OPTIONS to  customize features.  For example, I can remove the camera from the lock screen to prevent unwanted pics from my fellow coworkers (military...full of trolls and pranksters).  On iPhones, to remove the camera from the lock screen, you have to completely disable the camera on the phone.  

I just want the option(s) to remove or customize features.  I have already sent feed back to Samsung.  All I can do is just hope that this can be addressed in a future update either in One UI or Good Lock.  Maybe I should look for a third party app...

I agree I HATE this and HATE UI 7.  I think I'm switching from Samsung they have been steadily getting worse and worse.  UI 7.0 is total garbage if I wanted an IPhone I'd get one.
