Sorry, I misread your comment, I thought you were asking for a method other than one using lockdown mode. I doubt there’s a method using location if it isn’t provided by the manufacturer, because an app trying to do that would need permissions to lock the phone.

For almost any phone: just turn it off. Every I’ve used requires a passcode after a power cycle

My work phone is an iPhone and I love this feature. The moment it’s past work hours I no longer get buzzed for any notifications, and I only see direct messages on the home screen
- Comment on Android users who have a keen eye for design and detail, how is the whole stutter/lag situation? Esp. after a few years of use? 8 months ago:
I have a galaxy s21 that I’ve been using for the last 3 years. I haven’t noticed any difference in performance from the day I got the phone, and I don’t feel I’ll need to upgrade for another couple years. Full disclosure, I did use adb to remove a ton of Samsung bloat when I got the phone, and that definitely improved performance, so I’m not sure how different my experience would be with all the extra Samsung stuff added.

Join the cult of embedded engineers! My current project at work uses a cortex m0, so we have 32kB of code ROM and 4kB of RAM. It’s really satisfying finding little optimizations to save a couple dozen bytes here or there, and there’s never the pressure to just slap together code without worrying about size or speed since you can’t afford it with the hardware you’re using

Not sure if it automatically changes Facebook links, but the Facebook container extension is good at removing other tracking that Facebook does through news sites and such
