remove all active controls from lockscreen

When I lock my iPhone I now have controls that are active I want removed. I do not want to be able to hang up on current phone calls, or change what music is playing when the screen is locked.


Since this update placed an annoying control on my Lock Screen simply bumping my phone in a bag or pocket causes it to hang up phone calls / stop music etc.


How do I get rid of these? I would like locked screen to mean that it is safe from random bumps.

Bumping your phone will never do anything if the screen is locked. If you carry it in your pocket with the screen against your body then the contact with your body can trick the phone into responding.


If you routinely carry your phone in your pocket (not a good idea for a ~$1,000 piece of delicate electronics unless it is in a protective case) you need to do 2 things:


(1)Go to Settings/FaceID & Passcode and turn off Raise to Wake.


(2)Put the phone in your pocket with the BACK against your body so skin contact doesn’t activate it. This may seem counterintuitive, but it is more important to protect the back than the front; a screen can be replaced, but if the back glass breaks the whole phone must be replaced.
