Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like to use Netbird VPN to restrict and protect my kids. When connected over netbird I can enforce my home DNS server, which can block unsafe content. Unfortunatelly many android manufacturers doesnt offer way how to lock app configuration with pin or thumbprint

Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option to lock app settings, including connect/disconnect button with pin/thumbprint.

This solution can also be usefull for smaller companies to protect employees mobile devices. Not every company has MDM.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are none, only use different product

As a possible workaround you could try setting up the StayFree app (app usage time monitor) to disable the NetBird usage at all and protect the stayfree config change with password/pin.
The downside I see is after phone reboot the NetBird won't be connected automatically.
