Thanks redoy68.


If you use a case or screen protector, try removing it and find out if the issue continues to happen. If it stops, then you may want to use a different accessory to avoid it going forward. If the issue remains without a case or screen protector, it could indicate a hardware issue.


If that's the case, you can Contact Apple for support and service.


Hope that helps.


Take care.

Hi redoy68,


To make sure we're on the same page, are you referring to the proximity sensor that turns the iPhone display off when putting the phone to your ear?


If so, does it not turn the display back on after moving the phone away from your ear? How about when the call ends?


Let us know and we'll continue based on those details.


Cheers!
