Unwanted automatic call back

How can I prevent automatic callback by touching lock screen notification? I don’t have face recognition enabled either. This is really annoying because I want to know who I’m calling back & this doesn’t allow me to find out first. There has to be a way to shut this off. I wish apple would stop updating their software every friggin 2 months. Just when your getting used to something new they go & change it again! Also annoying! If you have to update at least do it once a year!!!!

You don't touch the Missed Call Notification. That will automatically return the call. If you wish to just look at the missed call, open the phone and look at the Recents list. Making the return call is expected behavior when you tap on that notification. Or, you can wait until you get a voicemail notification, if they left one, and that will take you to the voicemail instead of returning the call.

I’ve never seen a setting for that. You can uncheck “Lock Screen” in Settings/Notifications/Phone so they don’t appear on the lock screen.

I don’t think I explained it correctly. My screen is locked & when I go to hit the virtual home button to put the passcode in it just automatically calls the person back before I even get into the phone. I did uncheck Lock Screen in notifications after reading some responses but I just feel I shouldn’t have to do that.

That is true, you did not explain it correctly. If you are getting an automatic callback when pressing the AssistiveTouch button that is a different story. That appears to be an issue with that Accessibility Setting. I would review the settings for AssistiveTouch, or get your Home Button repaired if that is why you are using AssistiveTouch.
