Hello! Thank you very much for the response, I’m afraid I didn’t explain myself correctly.. I was referring to the “call control menu” that shows up whenever you open your iPhone, including when the phone is locked. Since I have an Xr, I accidentally tap things, end calls, etc. Is there anyway to disable this? At least for when the phone is locked...

Greetings sopita0057,
Thanks for your reply and for sharing the screenshot of your device.
We understand how you could accidentally tap the screen to disconnect the call, and we have a neat option which might prevent this in the future.
You can open another app or view the Home screen, as shown here: While on a call on iPhone. We want to point you specifically toward the section: "Use another app while on a call".
We trust this serves you well and helps you stay connected.
All the best!
Hello sopita0057,
We want to help manage your Lock screen so it appears as desired.
If you are referring to seeing notifications about calls on the Lock screen, this resource should help: Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
This particular section: "Manage notifications
To manage your notifications from the Lock screen or Notification Center:
Swipe left over an alert or group of alerts.
Tap Manage, then select from these options: Deliver Quietly: These notifications appear in the Notification Center, but don't show up on the Lock screen, play sounds, or show a banner or badge icon.
Turn Off: This turns off all notifications for a specific app. To turn this back on, go to Settings > Notifications, select the app, and tap Allow Notifications.
You can also tap Settings to change your alert styles or alert settings for a specific app. "
We hope that helps. Have a great day.
