iPhone SE iOS 18.3.1 making calls by itself

I have an iphone SE, ios 18.3.1 It is forever calling people on my Favorites, even if it's sitting on the table, without my touching it. Is this a sensitivity issue that can be adjusted.

Hello~ I should have been clearer…sorry. Click on below…


Use Voice Control on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Have you tried a forced restart? I would also recommend that you have your iPhone checked by Apple to make sure that you are not facing a failing digitizer. Click on below…

The slightest touch on the edge of the screen while holding the iPhone in your palm may trigger this.


Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch, then tap Haptic Touch or 3D & Haptic Touch. Choose the touch duration—Fast or Slow. On an iPhone with 3D Touch, you can choose the pressure needed—Light, Medium, or Firm.


Adjust how iPhone responds to your touch - Apple Support (IN)




There are two steps to do that.

  1. Check your iPhone display before you put it aside or in the pocket. iPhone display will turn off only after your Auto-Lock time settings.
  2. If the display is ON, lock the screen using the side button and check your iPhone display before you put it in the pocket


Sleep

On iPhone 6 and later, and on iPhone SE (2nd generation) and later, press the side button to wake your iPhone or put it to sleep. Press the top button on the iPhone SE (1st generation) and earlier.
