"End a call

If you start the countdown by accident, you can cancel. On iPhone 8 or later, release the side button and Volume button. On iPhone 7 or earlier, press the Stop button, then tap Stop Calling.

If you accidentally call emergency services, you can end the call. Tap the red end call icon, then confirm that you want to stop calling."


Are you sure you are not accidentally doing something to trigger this happening? You may have to carefully study the times when this is happening to make sure the buttons are not being pressed.
