Apple wallet randomly showws up on screen while phone has been off for long time

Hello, i have two iphones se2 and se3 both phones do the same thing but randomly appart. I am on the other side of the room and the phone is not used at all suddenly i hear my voice saying wallet !! I go check and yes the screen with my cards is opened without touching my phone. The app switcher has no wallet app in it or is not opened at all. This randomly happens on both phones from time to time. I restart my phone almost everyday and clear my app switcher each time. This seems really phishy to me , what can i do about this , both phones have 16.3.1 this issue is something from lately last few weeks i have had this happen now 4 times what is it ???? Thanks

iPhone SE, iOS 16

If you feel an unauthorized person is remotely controlling or monitoring your device, then that is possible only if you have done one or more of the following Don'ts...


  1. Don't hand over an iPhone to kids or to a stranger without Enabling Guided Access
  2. Don't share Apple IDs
  3. Don't Jailbreak
  4. Don't share sensitive information pertaining to your device
  5. Don't give in to Phishing
  6. Don't plug in your device in Airports and Public places through third-party cables and trust the device. Beware of Juice Jacking. (Especially in India)
  7. Don't leave your iPhone unlocked and unattended in public places like offices, schools, malls, etc.


If one of the above is true then quickly change the Apple ID Password and Return iPhone settings to their defaults.
