How to prevent my iPhone 14 from calling contacts automatically?

Hi,

I have an iPhone 14 with iOS 16 and recently it’s been calling my contacts without me touching it, for example lying on a table. Does anyone have a solution?

thanks

i see the same trouble with others and myself but no answer. Where are the responses ?

The earliest réponse to this thread made some suggestions and asked several clarifying questions. I don't believe the original poster ever answered them.


At this point, rather than tack a message onto a thread that's over a year old and appears to have people posting about a number of different issues around calling, I suggest you start your own, new thread. Keep in mind the questions asked in the first response to this thread and try to answer them as best you can.

I had the same problem with my iPhone 12 Pro Max , just purchased a 16 pro max same thing happened. I solved it by checking my shortcuts and found an old number of my granddaughter’s. It seems while I was using my phone I would accidentally tap the apple logo on the back which because this number was in my shortcuts it would ring it. Go to short cut check if the numbers the phone calls on its own are the numbers in shortcuts if so delete them and tick none in shortcuts lists. Worked for me , hope this helps
