I think there should be a setting that asks for security password to power off the phone when it’s locked. Just like in Samsung galaxy and oppo phones.
Password to switch off the mobile
#NothingOS 3.0
Should have a basic security feature of requiring password for phone Reboot/Shutdown. Currently if the phone is misplaced, anybody can just shutdown the phone.
Plz do it my humble request & very useful for all users!
Dear team
Recently I’ve updated to nothing 3.0 beta but still there is no ‘require pass code to shutdown’. What is the use of theft protection if the thief switches off the phone? .
Also we need double tap to unlock phone, as phone opens up once we touch the screen accidently.
Pls do atleast push these through some updates after stable is launched.
How to set password before switch off
BassimBinYoosaf This feature is useless if someone switches off the phone after they steal it. If they switch it off, then we can’t track our phone.
Password to switch off phone must be a mandatory feature and it’s still missing.

belthur Yaa bro I never said password to switch off is not necessary.
I just pointed out a new theft feature which might help some people
This should happen Password is required to switch off the mobile from the lockscreen.
The password to unlock the lock screen and the password of the app locker should be different, because even if someone gets to know the screen lock password, he will not be able to unlock the app. This will help in keeping the mobile secure.
There should be a password to unlock hidden apps and it should also be different from those two passwords.
If my phone gets snatched by a thief, he would power off the phone or he will turn on flight mode. Please provide a function so that phone has to be unlocked first to do so. It’s a major security requirement in India. Police can track the phone using sim location if the phone is not turned off.
Can nothing team add theft protection features like authentication is needed when power off or rebooting while on lock screen.
It will help to retrieve stolen items if theives are not able to shutdown the phone.
I hope this feature will be implemented in the upcoming updates I find it very useful & necessary it’s a must have for safety and security purposes.
Dear Team Nothing,
Can you guys add feature passcode for switching power off the device, it will maintain the security of device incase any mis happening took place. Also this feature is needed to many user and its very usefull feature.
I m currently using cmf phone 1 and if possible please do check my request and add this feature.
