Call ending

I continue to hang up on my loved ones and children from states away. All because of the power button when I’m on a phone call.

How can I disable this feature? It’s never been an issue with any of my iPhones but the iPhone 7.

I even have an iPhone 8+ and an iPhone X that do not have this feature. Please help.

If there is no option of turning this off. Please make one.

iPhone 7, iOS 13

You can't turn this off. To the best of my knowledge, the power button has ended calls pretty at least since the iPhone 4. I expect that a small size difference is enough to result in a conflict with your usual hand placement. The location of who you're talking to shouldn't make any difference.


You can certainly let Apple know you'd like to see something different:
