Phone keeps going into silent mode

Whenever I put my Iphone 8 Plus into a pocket, the silent switch ends up in the silent position. Is there any way to disable that switch with settings or a device that can be used to keep it in the non-silent position? I wouldn't mind using the volume switches to silence it. It is pretty darn annoying like it is.


It has been like this for over a year.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

I'm sorry there are no settings to disable the "silent" switch.

As for a device, experiment with phone cases that would prevent inadvertent flipping off the Ring/Silent Switch.
