Is it possible to disable touch ID on my iPhone at a certain time (while sleeping)?

Is it possible to disable touch ID only for a certain time of day (ie: beginning at 9pm daily for 9hours or 10 hours, etc.)? I am trying to avoid the possibility of someone using my fingerprint while I'm sleeping to unlock my phone. Thanks!

Not automatically, no. But if you press the side button 5 times in a row, it will lock out touch ID until you unlock it with your passcode.


Sounds to me like what you need to do is lock your door at night.
