Twice today my iPhone says it’s unavailable try again in 5 & then 10 minutes. Phone was in my pocket locked so I hadn’t entered my passcode incorrectly so why is this hay

iPhone 15, iOS 18
When the phone was in your pocket, the screen rubbed against your body or something else. The screen interpreted that as an incorrect passcode entry.
It might seem unintuitive, but place the phone in your pocket so that screen is facing away from you to help minimize the chances of something rubbing against the screen.
If the problem continues, try the following:
Tap Settings
Tap Accessibility
Tap Touch
Turn off Tap to Wake
This will prevent random touches from waking the screen and you will now need to tap the Side button to wake your iPhone.
