When someone rings the bell, the incoming call is notified on the phone, rings on my watch but I am unable to answer the call on the phone.
If I click the answer button on my watch, nothing happens on the phone.
If I click on the notification on the phone, nothing happens.
The call only stops when I press the hang-up button on the phone multiple times (at least 3 times. sometimes way more)

 

I have tried uninstalling the app and installing it back but got no luck.

Okay, to make sure I am understanding correctly, if you go out and press your doorbell right now, it will ring your phones, but you physically can not slide the answer call button?
