Aug 11, 2016 8:27 AM in response to Jlo305by turingtest2,Use iPhone Feedback. I think it would be a good idea if you could set a rule that required your passcode to turn the phone off as well as unlock it, but thieves would be able to put a stolen device in a Faraday bag and wait for the battery to run out so I don't think it would be much of an added deterrent to theft.
