Have you ever accidentally called someone or even a random international number from your phone? To help prevent accidental calls, make sure you set up a screen lock and hit the Power/Sleep/Wake button to turn off the screen before putting your phone in the pocket or bag. You can also install an app that confirms calls before you make them. Some smartphones even provide built-in feature to prevent pocket-dialing. On Infinix mobile phones, there is a feature called Inadvertently mode to prevent accidental operation caused by extrusion or fabric sliding when in the pocket. Follow below steps to turn on this feature. Note that the specific steps may vary slightly depending on your phone model or the software version it is running.

Unlock your Infinix mobile phone, launch Settings, choose Display, you can then find the Inadvertently mode option on this Display settings screen.
Touch the ON/OFF toggle to enable inadvertently mode on your Infinix phone and stop being that person who accidentally calls their friends.
Extra tips to help prevent accidental calls, touches and actions
Many smartphones manufacturers introduce the Pocket Mode feature that helps prevent accidental touches and actions when the device is in your pocket or bag. The name or terminology can vary across different phones. It may be called “prevent accidental touches” or similar on other phones.
To find and manage Pocket Mode on your phone, you should check your device’s settings. Typically, it can be found in the Display or Accessibility settings. Remember that the location of this feature can vary depending on the make and model of your phone. Another quick way to find it is using the search in Settings. The Settings app on most phones should allow users to search and quickly find the settings or options they are looking for. Other than that, you can also refer to your phone’s user manual or search online for instructions specific to your device.
Enable a screen lock on your phone, such as a PIN, password, pattern, or fingerprint recognition. This adds an extra layer of security and reduces the chance of accidental calls.
Set a short screen timeout period so that your phone’s screen locks automatically after a brief period of inactivity. This can prevent accidental touches while the phone is in your pocket.
Additionally, you can also manually lock your screen, use a flip cover or case, position it with the screen facing outward in your pocket, etc. These tips can also help you significantly reduce the likelihood of unintentional calls.
