Hello Nothing Community! Greetings!

Nothing OS is a feature rich OS and is getting better by the day. But one serious flaw is that while restarting or shutting down the phone from lock screen doesn’t require any password as of now. Which I feel is very much necessary and a must have. This would prevent thieves from shutting down the phone and user might track it.

mafcarvalho Oh damn I didn’t see this until now, nice, now they need to prevent power off prevention while phone is locked, unless that feature also exists now..

    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.

    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.

      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.
