The basic idea is that the devices now come with an optional feature that asks the password whenever you (or anyone) tries to turn it off.
Who are the users?
This is aimed to pretty much everyone, and if someone doesn't like this feature, they just can turn it off.
What is the proposed function?
The main use of the feature is in the situation of a robbery where the phone was lost. Usually, the burglar would turn off the device so it can't be tracked. With this feature on, the device wouldn't be able to be turned off, thus opening the possibility of getting back the phone with help of police officers and any tracking software like Google.
What is the user value?
This helps the user by giving him a real possibility of getting back his device after a robbery, and also avoiding someone turning off the device without his knowledge.
If there are existing comparable functions in the smartphone industry, how is your proposed feature superior?
As far as I know, there are no similar features on the market nowadays.
The pictures are an example of how it would be. The order is simple, First picture 1, then picture 2.
