It’s okay that I can tap and hold my Lock Screen to bring up the customise function, but more often than not when I pull the phone from my pocket or just pick it up, my finger touches the screen and it goes into the customise screen. It’s getting irritating now - since I can customise the Lock Screen via Settings anyway, is it possible to turn off the tap and hold Lock Screen function?
Turn off Tap to open in Settings, Accessibility, Touch. Also check out the other options in there.
