Pausing Voice Memos When Device Is Locked

Hello Folks!


Does anyone have a solution for this problem:


When tapping the “Record” button within Voice Memos on an iPhone 12, and locking the device, anyone can tap on the screen, and pause/stop the recording.


What I’m wondering is: Is there a way to lock the screen/device during recording, so that you have to unlock the device to stop the recording?


Even some third party apps can do this, and Apple’s “recording app” (Voice Memos) can’t? 🤔


iOS 16.4.1


Any feedback, suggestions, comments, etc. appreciated. 😊
