    Yes, you can enable a similar option on Android, which can be activated when holding down the power button.

      They mean to press and hold the power button. Which reveals this menu

      Power + volume up is usually how you do it I believe. Holding power down usually just activates an assistant.

        nope. default android 12-13 is the screen above posted. Hold power for a few seconds and it’ll pop up unless you’ve changed settings.

          Default android is not what most people run. Samsung and Google defaults are assistant.

              Interesting. It’s definitely a Samsung default and I thought it was Google default too.

              You can obviously disable it by turning off Assistant but if that’s not what you’ve done then there’s more to it than I thought.

        On my Sony phone, holding power with the screen on brings up the power menu, which includes Lockdown mode.

          Yeah I don’t think that’s the default on Samsung or Google phones. Could be wrong.

            I might have changed that setting. I don’t like Google Assistant on my phone since it interferes with my Google Home devices.
