Hi All. Is there a way to disable iPhone power off when the phone is locked? Find My IPhone does not work in my country as good as in the US…. I tested it and it didn’t show location of my turned off iPhone for 2 hours… so I would say it’s completely useless.

So potential thief grabs my phone, turns off, jailbreaks and uses as his own xD
 
It doesn't work that way, even if there's a passcode lock/face ID lock for turning off.

There's always (required) a low-level switch off/reboot mechanism: volume up, volume down, power button method to switch off the phone bypassing all the software.

Better keep your phone safe, physically
