Reduce automatic answer duration time

Previously you could set auto answer to less than 3 seconds. With the latest iOS you cannot set it lower than 3 seconds. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi Sbellefl71,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! You can set the duration of time before a call is answered by following the steps below in iOS 16:


Route and automatically answer calls on iPhone

1. Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Touch > Call Audio Routing, then choose an audio destination.
2. Tap Auto-Answer Calls, turn on Auto-Answer Calls, then set the duration of time before the call is answered by tapping the Decrement button or the Increment button.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
