I don't know what changed, but over the last week or so, my Pixel 6 (TQ3A.230901.001.2023100300) is doing a lot of emergency pocket dialing. In the last half an hour, I've consciously and specifically made sure the lock screen was locked, stuck the phone in my pocket and started walking around doing things. Beep, beep, beepity-beep.... Pull the phone out, it says Emergency Dialing and it's entering random numbers. Has anyone else seen an uptick in this? I guess I'll look for some kind of setting to make sure the lock screen stays locked. But, this upswing is a bit weird.
EDIT: I'm hoping Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Tap to Check Phone = Off will do the trick.
