How to Discreetly Disable Touch ID and Face ID on an iPhone

I would say so - just slide to power off instead of entering SOS mode. You must enter the passcode when powering back up, so I consider that easier than going and disabling your SOS auto-call which you may actually need at some point...

That doesn't really seem easier in the sense of how you'd get to it given that powering off requires more deliberate actions than simply pressing a button a few times without even really looking or even taking the phone out of one's pocket or purse, for example.

If you are unconscious, how do you hit the button five times.

People... enough of this crazy paranoid stuff. Unless you are a murderer, kiddie molester or big time drug dealer the police don’t really care about your phone. If a cop gets in your phone illegally, it is thrown out in court.

And for Gods sake, if you are being robbed, give them the damn phone. Disable it later or track it with the police. They can’t do anything without your icloud passcode.

Why do we need a search warrent if you arebt doing anything wrong? The most bs reasoning ever. And laws change and arecever expanding all of the time.
