Assistive Touch - Security Issue I've discovered that it's possible to restart a phone using AssistiveTouch. Does this mean the phone can also be switched off without unlocking it? If so, wouldn't someone who finds a lost phone be able to turn it off without unlocking it? This seems like a potential security bug.

AssistiveTouch on locked screen Hello! I love using the AssistiveTouch feature, but I’d like to restrict its use to unlock screen only. I have customized it to the menus I was the most and find it really useful, including a shortcut to Control Center, and precisely for the shortcut, I’d like to disable the visual assist touch button from the unlock screen, as anyone who can get a hold of your phone (pickpocket in mind) can easily put the phone in airplane mode disabling Find my iPhone or change other settings like Bluetooth. I’ve been researching online and going through the menus and could not find an answer, so for the time being I turned AssistiveTouch off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
