How can I disable/remove the 'mute button' when calling...

When calling with my iPhone (5s) I often press my cheek against the mute button by accident. Which interrupts the phonecall. Is there any way I can disable this button or remove it from this screen?

Volume button not working during calls Hello Everyone! Do you guys facing an issue like, when you call to anyone and place the phone on your ear then try to volume up and down but the key’s doesn’t work during call? You have to unplace the phone from your ears to change then volume… like, you can’t change volume when the screen is off because of proximity sensor… You have to take the phone far from your ears so that you can change the volume and place the phone again on your ears… this problem is happening after iOS 16… It wasn’t there at iOS 15

How do i turn off dial pad tones on iphone 14 pro (iOS 16) Hi, I am new to iPhone and been having a very frustrated switch from Android. Hoping someone can help. There is a loud dial pad tone every time I dial a number. I have tried to turn this off in sounds & haptics but issue still persists. The only way to it turns off is it to switch it to silent. Any ideas how I can turn the dial pad tones off at all times, as they are not the most pleasant of sounds? Thank you

Probably you are leaving a gap between your ear and the iPhone. Take your iPhone close to your ear then the touch will be disabled.
