App to disable touchscreen while on call.

[avacomputers]

Has anyone heard of an application to disable the touchscreen while on a phone call. I keep putting it on mute.

Thanks

I thought it has a proximity sensor that disables the touchscreen when its close to your face?

I have a samsung moment.

Screebl will turn on/off your screen based on the angle you are holding your phone. Never used it but many say it is great.

Great just found the setting in screebl.

It would be a simple fix to just add a lock button...I keep hanging up...and if I keep it away far enough not to trigger..then I am told I sound muffled

...don't all smartphones with touchscreens come with proximity sensors? News to me.

**edit**
just noticed you have a moment, I thought it already had one.

The moment does have a proximity sensor, but I've noticed that it's not foolproof. If I hold the phone the wrong way, sometimes it turns the screen back on. I've muted myself a few times on calls now. I've noticed that it's especially bad if I have to pinch the phone between my head and my shoulder because I'm doing something that requires both hands.
