A newly discovered bug in Skype for Android is causing the app to automatically answer incoming Skype calls. According to a report from AndroidPolice, users were posting on the Microsoft community forum that they were experiencing the bug since mid January this year.
The bug is likely an issue with a feature that Microsoft added to Skype back in 2014 called automatic answering, which was intended to allow Skype users to call their own devices at home or elsewhere to view a location remotely, essentially using Skype as a security camera of sorts.
