Does the iPhone 11 have a way to lock the screen? My iPhone 11 has a very touchy screen. Is there a way to lock the screen, so that touching it accidentally will not change what you are watching or listening to?

Is there a way to turn off custom Lock Screen option? IOS 16 Whenever I go to check my phone's lock screen, my phone often interprets my tap on my screen as a long hold and zooms out to display the new custom lock screen options. This is a pain for a number of reasons. I am not trying to edit my home screen, most of the time I'm just checking the time or my notifications. It drains my battery. My screen doesn't lock again until the system option of 3 minutes, unlike the lock screen which will show for maybe 15 seconds. Any accidental taps on my screen when I'm not looking and my screen will be idly on for 3 minutes. It's just unnecessary. If I wanted to edit it, I would think it would be found in settings like the rest of the home and lock screen options. Is there a way to turn this off? Stop it from happening? Put a different command to editing the lock screen? Apple really does just shoot themselves in the foot every time they add an update.

This is not a feature of an iPhone.
