Why does the AssistiveTouch button keep appearing on my iPhone?

Guys, this has been an ongoing and annoying problem. This button comes on at least once a week. Why can’t you fix this bug?

As your iPhone 12 Pro could be 4½ years old, it's worth checking for a weak, aging battery — which can cause unexpected behaviour. So...


Does your iPhone 12 Pro still have its original battery?


And what's the Maximum Capacity % here?...


Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging
