[Electronics-Talk] iPhone Question

Acgtualy, the iPhone 7+ has several sensors -- barometric pressure, level,
moisture, etc. -- and the touch-screen tends to be invoked even if the
psudo-Home Button is even brushed. I should think it useful to be able to
disable all those sensors -- perhaps with a passcode to reenable them -- if
one were carrying the phone in a position where it was likely to be
disturbed.

But I'll deal with it.

I'm not 100 percent sure I understand your question. What is the reason for
disabling the touch screen while phone is locked as it does not respond
anyway. thanks

All:

Is there a way under iOS 10 to disable the touch screen except for the home
button when the iPhone is locked? Or bust one put up with a touchscreen at
all times?

Thanks.
