Question

iPhone 15 Pro made outgoing call alone while charging

My iPhone made an outgoing call at night without my participation! The phone and watch were on the dock, charging in Sleep mode. I woke up to the fact that I heard the sounds of a call from the speaker of the phone and then the caller's answer, the phone itself made this outgoing call. The number that the phone rang is missing from my saved ones, but I found it in my outgoing call list, I called this number a week ago. I was alone in the room, and I don't talk in my sleep.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 26.2.1 (23C71), Apple Watch Ultra 2.

As a rule, being a machine, your phone does not have free will and can not simply make a call of its own accord.

Either you interacted with the phone in some way without realizing it or something in the environment triggered the action using Siri (TV, radio, etc) or there is a physical problem with the phone.

A failing touch screen is a possibility. If you charge using a cable (as opposed to MagSafe), a bad cable can also cause what's interpreted as unintended input on the screen.

I understand that miracles don't happen, but I still don't understand the reason for the call. I was ALONE in the room, no one touched the phone, I was asleep and therefore there was COMPLETE SILENCE, the time was 04:30 AM. Siri is turned off! The phone and watch were on wireless charging!

Unfortunately, there is no way for us to reconstruct what happened.
