keep my screen off in my pocket

i work outside and while my phone is in my pocket it rattles around. how do i keep my screen dark so that i don't disable my phone by entering the code in wrong too many times. i also butt dial people quiet often because i think i locked my phone but didn't.


iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15

Turn off Tap to Wake in Accessibility.


Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Tap or Swipe to Wake


Turn it off and your phone won't wake jostling around in your pocket. You will need to use the side power button to wake your screen, however.
