Why is my phone answering calls without me doing anything?

When I receive calls from my contacts, my phone will answer the call without me doing anything. It will not transfer to my watch while I'm wearing it but will leave my line open so anyone can hear what I'm talking about and/or what is going on where I'm located without my having allowed it to do so.


It was suggested that I call apple from a second line so they could troubleshoot.


Please advise.

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14
