Re: Speaker phone issue
A cheapo flip phone as you call it are useful, and if some individuals for
whatever reason fell more confortable with dialing a number on a button phone
there's nothing wrong with that. Especially considering all the more, if they
are just getting use to navigating the touch screen on wit being their new
iphone and you're rightit takes practice. Though until one has had time to get
use to it, in the meantime for times when they are out somewhere or other
crucial times, for some individuals, dialing on a button phone and being able
to do it quickly may be best. After all, everyone has their own ways of doing
things and learning,. That practice time can vary to from person to person. I'm
very confortable in dialing a phone number on a touch screen, though equally I
still like dialing on a button phone, whether it be a cordless phone, a cell
phone or wired phone. I've only been at this for about 3 months, finding
buttons while being in a call, plus other details, answering a call waiting,
then going back to the first caller, and making a 3 way call, finding all those
important buttons will take more practice.

As Richard suggested, just disable the automatic switching in Voiceover
Settings > Audio.
I don’t agree with the statement that the phone part of the iPhone is the
worst part and I would never carry some cheapo flip phone just to make phone
calls, this would mean having two cell contracts since I assume these people
would still want to have service on the iPhone for texting and so on.
I might agree if somebody has physical issues which make it difficult to use
the touch screen, but for people who have normal use of their hands I think
it’s just practice.

The phone is the worst part of the iPhone. i seldom take or make calls on my
iPhone. In fact, I know some folks who have a cheap cell phone that they use
for calls and they use their iPhone for the other neat stuff you can do.

Hi Marie,
I had this same problem with my iPhone SE, and IOS 9,and since I can't
stand speaker phones anyway,
I went into settings and disabled the ability to use speaker phone.
and I use only headphones
You might want to give this a try!
In my opinion, the iPhone is the worst cell phone I have ever had,
but it is a great portable hand-held computer.
HTH,

Subject: Speaker phone issue
I have an IPhone seven which goes to speaker phone when my ear is up
against the phone and it is happening all too often. I have spoken to Apple and
they are aware of the problem but have no solution. It is nerve racking and
actually hurts my ear. Is there any possibility of lowering the volume of the
speaker phone before it damages the only ear which still has hearing?

Re: Speaker phone issue
Same thing happens with my iPhone 8.

Re: Speaker phone issue
The phone is the worst part of the iPhone. i seldom take or make calls on my iPhone. In fact, I know some folks who have a cheap cell phone that they use for calls and they use their iPhone for the other neat stuff you can do.

I haven't tested this, but I believe "headset" here refers to the small speaker at the top of the phone.

Re: speaker phone issue
Sounds like a proximity sensor problem, where the sensor is sometimes thinking your phone is held to your ear and sometimes thinking it isn't. I suppose a good cleaning (be sure to look up how to properly clean touch screens) couldn't hurt, particularly around the sensors.
