My wife and I were in the car this morning when my phone, a S8 Active sitting on the dash, starts ringing... I pick it up, and it is my wife calling... except she's not; her S8+ is sitting in the console. She picks it up, unlocks it and cancels the call. We explain it away assuming there had to be a logical reason, and close all of her open apps.
It happens a second and third time, so I check to see if it has been calling other numbers too, but it has not; my number is the only one in her "recents" this morning. I reboot the phone, hoping to reset whatever might be bugging it.
Within a couple of minutes, as we pull into the driveway, it calls my phone again...
However, once we are in the house, the phones are separated, and it doesn't happen again...
Both phones are almost 2 years old and are on the same plan, and I have to believe that it is not a random coincidence that it happened with my S8 while they were within 2 feet of each other, and no others. This is the first time it has happened though...
What can explain this, and how do we stop it from happening in the future every time we sit next to each other?
