    Accessibility is a great place to customize features on your phone.  But you cannot change the settigs for voice control there.  You can activate and deactivate the Voice Over feature.  But that is another feature all together.

     

    The best way to not activate voice control is to not press and hold the home button.  If you keep your finger on it for to long at all then you will have to deal with voice control.

    I had assumed that the OP meant voiceover, as that is a common question, and most users incorrectly call it voice control.

    To date, you CANNOT turn off voice control on an iPhone 4 with latest iOS 7 (you can with 4s using Siri settings) .

     

    With the phone home button pressed against something (e.g. in your pocket), it WILL accidentally voice dial or perform some other unwanted feature. I can only suggest you experiment with a screen cover so that the home buttom becomes more recessed or a stiffish slide in cover sleeve ('sock') for the phone that serves to shield the home button from other objects. Do NOT fit the little home button protector that sometimes comes with some screen protectors as this just makes the button more proud and so more easily pressed.

     

    Where is the update for the voice control on/off setting, Apple? So basic... one might think they have done it on purpose so you upgrade.
