Is there a way to disable the quick settings panel when the phone’s locked?

On some phones, you need a PIN or password to turn it off(power off). Is that something the Nothing Phone 2a offers for extra security?

Hello Nothing #NothingOS,Nothing Phone Series, I love the clean UI of your launcher, which feels very similar to stock Android. However, I have a couple of suggestions related to privacy and security when the phone is locked.

Currently, even when the phone is locked, users can access the notification bar by swiping down. From there, they can easily turn off Wi-Fi, mobile data, or even power off the phone entirely. This raises a concern – if my phone gets lost or stolen, someone could easily disable these functions, making it harder to track or locate the device.

My suggestion is to implement a security measure where any action taken in the notification bar while the phone is locked (including turning off Wi-Fi, mobile data, or powering off the phone) requires the user to unlock the phone first using their PIN, fingerprint, or face ID. This would add an extra layer of security and prevent unauthorized access to these critical functions.

Oh yeah great recommendation and if phone is lost, user should be able to control mobile data and location from find device app which Google will have to implement, but atleast option to restrict notification panel and power off password prompt must be present in every phone.
