Hold down the side button and either volume button for two seconds until the "Slide to power off" screen appears, then tap cancel to lock it*. Alternatively, press the side/power button 5 times rapidly to activate Emergency SOS and lock the phone.
Varies by phone. Pressing power 5x on mine dials emergency services.
Probably. On mine this works
Is this for iPhone or Android?
iPhone
This makes sense. Any time I see someone acting as though there is one type of phone, it's an iPhone user. For example, only an iPhone user will recommend an iOS-only app because it literally never occurred to them that another platform exists.
My android is long press the power to select lockdown, or you can select a 5 quick presses type gesture to activate lockdown or another action
Power + Volume Down is screenshot in Android, so I'm guessing iPhone.
