[Solved] Can we lock a phone with iOS programatically?

Question

Short answer: You can’t.

Long Answer: For the security of iOS users, Apple does not allow any application to work with important hardware matters, such as locking the iPhone or controlling the usage of other apps. If your app even attempts to do such a thing (using any method, like external APIs), your app will immediately be rejected by Apple. It is not even worth trying.
