Greetings cjay257,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities, it's great to have you here.
Is it possible that you're pressing the new Action button without realizing it? Since that button is new, if you've used iPhone in the past, you may not be expecting to press it. This article has some more information on how that button works, so hopefully you are able to get familiar with it and see if you think that may be what is going on: Customize the Action button on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max - Apple Support
If you don't think that is what you're experiencing, go ahead and reach out to Apple directly for additional support. If support is available in your region, this will let you work directly with an AppleCare Advisor who specializes in resolving this exact type of issue. You can begin by reaching out here: Get Support
We hope this information is helpful!
Have a great day.
