iPhone: disable lockscreen completely - does it work?
You want to completely disable the lockscreen on your iPhone. In this practical tip we will explain to you whether this is possible.
Lockscreen cannot be deactivated - you can deactivate the code lock
The lockscreen cannot be deactivated without jailbreaking any setting in the menu. Various security gaps, with which it was possible to switch off the lockscreen, were and are quickly rectified by Apple.
- You can disable the lock code: after starting your iPhone, all you have to do is unlock the lockscreen.
- Deactivate the code in "Settings" -> "Touch ID & Password" -> "Deactivate code".
- However, this process is not recommended if you are on the go with your iPhone. If your device is stolen or lost, the thief or finder can access your private data.
Disable lockscreen with jailbreak

- Note: The jailbreak for Apple devices is not intended by the manufacturer. Jailbreaking your iPhone will void your warranty.
