Disable swipe left camera on lock screen (iOS16)

Updated to iOS16 this morning in anticipation of the lock screen customization and I can't find a setting to remove the camera from the swipe left lock screen. Is this still an option that does not exists, or am I just missing the setting?


I absolutely hate than anyone can grab my phone and take pictures, or when I look at my pictures, I see a handful pictures of the inside of my pocket.


It would be weird if one of biggest features being pitched is lock

screen customization, but still not being able to remove the camera.


Disabling the camera entirely using screentime is not a solution.

iPhone 8, iOS 16

I have been waiting for this feature for ages and it's a real nuisance, but Apple has failed to recognise this as a problem for some reason. I know many users that are frustrated over this and we have sent feedback many times about this, but no.


It's the price you pay I guess to use an IOS device since the developers feels so disconnected with the actual users.
