iPhone SE (2020) After call goes thru should you hit "Hide"?

[mrputer]

Was on a call I made when kept hearing dialing tones. Happened twice to same caller. Neither of us had incoming call. The other person asked if I was on dialing pad. I was. We were cut off, but I think she was suggesting I hit "Hide" to solve the problem. Does this make sense? Thank you

Tapping on hide (to hide the phone pad) will not disconnect the call. Once your call has connected, you shouldn't hear any dialing tones.

Thank you for responding. I realize tapping Hide doesn't disconnect the call. I think what other person was suggesting that having the dial pad on screen was somehow causing dialing tones

I suppose if you're touching your cheek to the keyboard it may dial. I don't hold my phone against my face when holding it to my ear. Other times I'm using Airpod's or the speaker..

Your face may have pressed up against the keypad to trigger a sound as Bug suggested.

My iPhone turns it screen off, if I put it to my face. Doesn't every iPhone do that?

Never hold it to my face. Hold the phone in front of me. But thanks for responding.

Can also swipe up/home button when on call to minimize the Phone app as well. Won't disconnect the call.
