Make locking the screen easier

[Neil q]

@Rob-Kelley On Android there's an app called Touch Lock that overlays a lock button. Just tried it and it works with MRA. Maybe something similar for iPhone??

I tend to agree it would be a useful feature in MRA tho, DMD2 has it.

I've tried iOS Guided Access which kinda works but it's a bit fiddly to enable/disable by triple tapping the side button and it overlays a grey semi transparent box.

@Rob-Kelley There’s a new feature on its way (now in test in beta). Just two little clicks to lock and only one click to unlock.

It's already live in update 4.3.4
The button has been moved up in the menu or long press the menu button itself (while navigating) to lock the screen.

@Bouke-Ent
When locked a padlock icon will appear on the screen, tap that to unlock.
