Is it possible to remove the Emergency call button from the unlock screen as accidental calls to emergency services has become an increasingly frequent issue. 

I cant find an option to remove it without removing all security in terms of unlock options which seems crazy.

Apparently it's a bug in all android phones according to reading the reports in the news article, wether there's a fix in the Android 14 version later this summer makes tobe seen. It's not just effecting the UK but around the whole world too.

Mine it's keep calling 112 (EU emergency) at least once a day, ending as 911 in US, it's just stupid! Why not to make a "slide to call" button?

Somehow, after every update it's even worse..

Moderator will confirm that there's no way to remove it.
