Hi Petrus, Yes, for sure. In Settings, Display & Brightness, you can set the Auto-Lock time to five minutes. You can even set it to Never, but I would never recommend that to anyone. For the other part of your question, yes, again. Go into Settings, Touch ID & Pass-Code enter the pass-code, then un-tick the box for using Touch ID to unlock the iPhone.
Good luck and stay safe. Later...

I’m trying to help someone else on another blind iPhone users email list that I’m on. She is in her 80s and uses an iPhone mostly for playing games on. She has a lot of trouble using the virtual keyboard to enter her Apple ID password. She’s asking about Touch ID as it might make it easier for her. Can one stop the screen from locking automatically so she doesn’t need to use Touch ID to unlock her phone all the time but leave the Touch ID activated for her game purchases in the App Store? She lives on her own so doesn’t need to lock her phone as often. I think she will be able to cope with the six digit pass code if she does need to use it? > On 6/04/2020, at 20:29, Simon A Fogarty <si...@blinky-net.com > <mailto:si...@blinky-net.com>> wrote: > > Hey Dave, > > Use the tip of your nose > > If that gets cut or glue on it then yo’re really in trouble. > > > > From:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> > <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com>>On > Behalf Of Dave Carlson > Sent: Monday, 6 April 2020 2:43 PM > To: 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com > <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com>> > Subject: Re: Touch ID Issue > > I have to make new fingerprints about once a month.
