My mother had a stroke and has trouble understanding things. She keeps shutting her phone down. We can't get her to understand to just press the button to turn off the screen and don't slide the bar to shut the phone down. Is there anything we can do to stop the phone from shutting down? If we could require a password to shut down that would be perfect, but it doesn't seem possible.
iPhone SE (3rd generation)
Hello kelche84!
I’m sorry to hear about your mother. I understand what you’re going through.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to prevent one from shutting off their iPhone. I’m sorry.
Have a nice day, and good luck!
