I had updated to UI 7 on my S24U. I am trying to find a way to lock my quick access panel completely. I should be able to access it only on unlock. 
While using UI 6, my friend had taken my phone and kept it on silent to prank me. It was really hard to find until he gave up on me. But what we had is that the quick access would only show partially and needs to unlock to see the full panel. Sadly, on UI 7, I can only lock basics like wifi, location and internet.
Is there a way to not let people access the quick panel unless unlocked?

You can Search for GoodLock on the Galaxy Store, or download it from apk mirror.

I don't think that you can.. it's a fairly big security issue..

This is apparently the solution. 

"To disable quick settings access on the lock screen of a Samsung device, navigate to Settings > Lock screen and AOD > Secure lock settings. Enter your passcode, then toggle off the option labeled "Quick settings" or "Lock screen options". This will prevent access to the quick settings panel when the device is locked." - Google Search

Naah that changed with UI 7. Used to be there on until 6.1

Yes I checked after, and the option isn't there. It should definitely be brought back in the next Security Patch OTA!

I sent an Error Report to Samsung regarding this.. we'll see what, if anything they have to say.
