To lock the iPhone again, press the side button. iPhone locks automatically if you don't touch the screen for a minute or so.

Press the side button.

Wake and unlock iPhone - Apple Support (IN)

Thank you very much for helping, SravanKrA. Until now I have only used the button for re-booting my phone. I guess that explains why my phone hasn’t automatically backed itself up, plus why it keeps calling people on its own; I just thought it was bored with me.🤔

SravanKrA: how did you get your photo used as your “avatar?” This Western Screech Owl suits me perfectly, don’t you think?
