I'm missing the option to encrypt the phone quickly or fully lockout of the secondary profiles.
As well as an option to disable pin highlighting.

That is supposedly coming with Android 14.

How quickly? Holding power button and pressing reboot will do that for you.
matchboxbananasynergy and that's the problem. we shouldn't rely on using the display and 30 seconds of power button press is unreasonable.
a setting to adjust this time (from the main profile settings ofc) would help a alot.
@"matchboxbananasynergy" @GrapheneOS" Seriously whe need to get in BFU quicker and more accessible..
holding the power button for 2 to 3 seconds when being robbed can be hard enough.
I'd be open to holding Power Button + Shake the Device to lock it down/reboot it. That'd be a nice shortcut.
I can't follow your scenario here. If you really have such threat model that you have to care about the AFU/BFU state of your device. You should rethink how you use it. What you asking for won't help against an adversary you're assuming.
For me it takes exactly 2 sec to restart the device. Power button - restart. And don't ping developers pls
Not exactly related but would be good to have a way to quickly delete a designed user profile. Right now you need to go all the way up to confirmation dialog and hold a finger to tap Okay
Depending on where you're currently residing and the jurisdiction in that country that probably would come down to homicide or murder. So if touching your device, regardless of the motion be it shaking or merely touching, might get you killed isn't the auto reboot timer just the tool you want? 10 min is barely enough to brute force your device. Taking into account that a few minutes may have passed since your last unlock, it would be even less.
Phead i did not say somebody wants to kill me for using my phone. i just want to be able to turn off or restart quickly/ without a display.
30 seconds power button press wtf?!
even if it's not an emergency.
it isnt even sufficient for restarting the device when having blackscreen, which is a common issue when using video players on grapheneos.
(couldnt find the thread unfortunately, but the fix is to enable screen activation on pickup)
who expects to hold the button 30 seconds?
whom does it help?
i've never seen something like this on my past phones.

This action is standard on most phones. It's the same with computers. If you hold the power button for a certain amount of time it will hard restart or shutdown completely. It's very useful when the OS has crashed, for example.
It does not take 30 secs. I hold my power button for 1 second and then press lockdown or restart. Takes a total 2 seconds for me for the phone to restart.
If that's not enough. Stop using a phone for whatever someone is trying to kill you for.
Can I recommend using a note pad, pencil and a secret code then?
It sounds like in your extreme case, the only way to win is not to play.

Well, you could start to work on a feature request for something similar to Apple's emergency ... thingy (press 5 times the Power button to enter emergency mode). So, in your case this feature would be configured to restart/power off your phone whilst being in your pocket. As long as your expectations are clearly expressed maybe you and the devs eventually enter a fruitful discussion about this topic. Or you come up with other solutions.
But, since you and someone else mentioned that fiddling with your phone while being in difficult situation could be dangerous, I do not think that having your hand in your pocket while talking to/facing law enforcement is a good idea.
