I have gotten the "disabled, try again" screen several times as I was running with my iphone X in a running belt pocket. I am guessing my iPhone X screen is sensing something as a series of taps. Is there a way to "de-sensitize" the screen temporarily? I have the fall alert turned off.
iPhone XS Max
Raise to wake was turned off.
Tap to wake was on. I turned it off, but now I'm not sure how I will wake the phone when I want to. I always just tap it. May need more help, or just testing on my own. In any case, thanks.
I understand it's probably not the most convenient of solutions. You might just have to get used to adjusting your settings before and after a run. But waking your phone with these settings turned off should not be a problem. Disabling the features I mentioned does not change the fact that you can always just press the sleep/wake/power button to wake up your iPhone.
Hopefully this helps you enjoy your runs without disabling your iPhone!
Thanks for the tip. I'll test it on my next run.
you could try a couple of things
go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch and turn off Tap to Wake
go to Settings > Display & Brightness > and turn off Raise to Wake
