I've often heard this said, but my iPhone 8 doesn't operate like this at all. Touch ID still works regardless of how many times I press the lock button. Is there a setting I'm missing? I've looked around and couldn't find anything.

It ought to, this is an iOS 11 feature which is what the iPhone 8 shipped with.

I don’t see any option for it in the passcode settings either.

On my iPhone SE it takes me to a screen with power off, medical ID, and emergency SOS sliders. To get back to the home screen after that I need to enter my passcode.

>volume and lock buttons simultaneously

Aha, that does it!

You have to be on iOS 12.4 or later I believe.

In fact, when I just tried this on my iPhone XR (iOS 13.3.1) it started making an emergency call.

That’s part of it. Depending on your settings, it may also make an emergency call, but it will always lock Face ID and Touch ID.

Hold a volume button, lock button, and your home button at the same time
