The ability to prevent swiping down and accessing quick panel needs to be enabled.

I know there is an option that still allows access but prevent a few options from being changed.

But unfortunately, kids tend to play with the screen brightness, sound settings (turning the phone to mute instead of loud notifications), flash settings etc.

This is such a basic use case and surprised this has been removed.

@M0DS: I have gone ahead and passed your suggestion to our Research and Development Team, who will explore the possibility of introducing the option to lock/prevent access to the Quick Panel while a device is locked. I will update this post when I hear any feedback from them.

@M0DS: Hi there. Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. The Research and Development Team have looked into the possibility of locking the Quick Panel completely while the phone is locked, however as it doesn't directly affect the security of the device, it's implementation has not been deemed a high priority. Please be assured that they will continue to monitor this going forward, however at the moment they are focussing on other critical areas for improvement.

any update? I live in an area where phones being taken is a real reality and my friends phones have been stolen before, luckily not mine. however this is honestly a very important area for me because if someone takes my phone they can easily turn off my location, wifi, and mobile data so that I can't find my device
