Has anyone ever accidentally pocket-unlock your MY?

I forgot to close the Tesla app (or turn off the screen) as I pocketed my phone to enter a store. I came out 10 mins later to find my frunk unlocked, back hatch opened & phone full of Sentry notifications (I had it on silent). Luckily people were polite enough to mind their own business & nothing happened.

I butt-dialed 911 a few weeks ago, now I gotta be careful not to butt-unlock my MY. 😅

Did this ever happen to anyone else?
 
Unfortunately yes, after parking on reverse close to a concrete wall on a multilevel parking, I pocketed the phone and it unlock the car & opened the trunk... As a result it scratch the edge of the trunk with the concrete. Had to buy some paint to fix it. Rookie mistake, as I forgot that the phone had made accidental calls in the past by doing the same. Now I set the display to stay up only for 30 seconds and wait before I put it in my pocket.
