How to stop my phone from auto answering

My phone is answering calls on it's own.

I will be in another room, hear my phone ring and before I can get to it, it has automatically answered the call.

I have turned off and on the phone as well as doing a reset and it has not fixed the problem.

Hello~ Have you completed this? Try Settings>Accessibility>Touch>Call Audio Routing>Auto-Answer Calls. Turning it off?

Perhaps you may need to decidedly go through long list of

related topics to narrow down and find info to change that?

iPhone User Guide - (Table of Contents) Apple Support

//support.apple.com/guide/iphone/toc

This allows one to see more of the articles in one place; yet

even so, there are more Support articles from Apple online.

See sample list of ones from 'Table of Contents' as follows:

Phone:

• Make a call
• Record and transcribe a call
• Change your Phone settings
• View and delete the call history
• Answer or decline incoming calls
• While on a call
• Share screens during a phone call
• Request or give remote control in a Phone call
• Have a conference or three-way call
• Set up voicemail
• Check voicemail
• Change voicemail greeting and settings
• Select ringtones
• Make calls using Wi-Fi
• Set up call forwarding
• Set up call waiting
• Screen and block calls

Sometimes seemingly unrelated items may be found

within a different topic article; as in a 'blue text' link..

Similar yet different example in Messages: Table of Contents

may also be worth reading among articles there, to be sure!

And Voicemail is an odd mystery. On occasion I find a Voicemail

from a few years ago. A few times, I had expected to get Email,

instead of a Voice Message.. [I've turned off Voicemail and Siri.]

After finding information from my Mac, easily: I'd need to share

those articles. (Or just a PDF. in Preview from Mac to iPhone.) I'd

sought to use AirDrop since that had worked. ~ The .PDF Article

took a different route. It has never been seen, after that AirDrop.

Said in iPhone, to look into Books app. Not one thing was found.

Finally I used my gmail app to send the item to myself. Instead of

the AirDrop. Worked out well, and most direct, too. (But why?)

.There's times I miss a lot of older tech; reliable, works w/o electricity

& most cats won't use vintage keyboards, on mechanical typewriters.

An A.I. search in DuckDuckGo, in browser, may help sift through

the dozens of possibilities from Apple Support articles and topics.

While the Table of Contents for iPhone is usually found under Tips.
