The behavior should be exactly the same as with the GPS button.
If you are on the lock screen and want to deactivate GPS in the quick settings, you have to enter the PIN first (or the corresponding unlocking measure that you have set)
That’s why the first post starts with “It is possible”. That’s not in question.
The issue is that you can use all these Quick Settings toggles freely on the lock screen without unlocking, with several Android flavours out there showing a setting to either allow or deny this, while /e/OS seemingly doesn’t have such a setting currently.
I don’t mean the shortcuts at the bottom left and right on the lock screen, but the settings I can access by swiping down from the top.
If you mean that, then i dont know how to do that
Sorry if i’m misinterpreting what you’re asking for here, but if you want to completely remove settings from the lock screen pulldown then when you access the pulldown, look to the bottom left of the pulldown, there’s a pencil icon. If you click that then after entering your pin, you can add/remove settings from the pulldown.
I know that was your original point, but from your reply to DoThat’s post, it seemed like you didn’t know how to edit what settings were available on the lockscreen. That’s the bit i was trying to address.
