How do I stop my iPhone SE from monitoring my calls?

Asked By CuriousCat22 On

I recently updated my iPhone SE to the Liquid Glass software, and since then, I've noticed a feature that really bothers me. When I made a call and got put on hold, my phone dings and asks if I want it to hold the call for me and notify me when to pick it up again. This makes me feel like my phone is listening in on my calls, and it's quite unsettling. I've tried looking up ways to disable this feature, but the only advice I've found suggests preventing the phone app from accessing my microphone, which would stop me from making or receiving calls altogether. I know many people might not care about privacy, but this is really concerning for me. Can anyone help me disable this feature? Additionally, if there's a way to revert the frustrating software update, I'd appreciate that too!

I get your concerns completely! Just because the data stays on your device doesn’t mean it doesn’t feel invasive. Companies like Apple often reassure users about privacy, but it’s wise to remain cautious. I appreciate that you've considered this carefully. You might want to check your settings for any options regarding data collection, even if it's all local.

Don't worry; no one else can hear your calls! It's all managed internally on your phone. But I totally get being protective of your privacy—it's important!

You can turn off that Hold Assist Detection quite easily! Just go to Settings > Apps > Phone and toggle it off. That should help alleviate your concerns.

It sounds like you’re misunderstanding how this feature works. The monitoring is done entirely on your device; no data is sent anywhere else. If you want to stop your phone from knowing about your calls, you'd have to stop using it altogether! To change the Liquid Glass design, you can update to version 26.1 and adjust it in Settings.
