So my two year old kid finds my phone occasionally and plays with the lock screen. When I finally notice it, there is text on screen " iPhone can't be used for the next X hours". I'm like 😵as I might need to make important call or receive one.
Any way to disable this "feature"?

haha same problem here but no, it is not an option because then it would be easy to keep guessing the passcode

I would make sure the setting for wiping your phone is OFF. I think that is the default but it is worth a check.

Settings -> Touch ID & Passcode. -> Erase Data.
