How to I stop the ring tone from changing to vibrate when I pick it up?

[Android Central Question]

Since about 2 days ago, every time I pick up a ringing phone, the ring tone changes to vibrate (somewhat resembling the behavior of a wasp). How can I stop the phone from doing this?

Answers to posts here <https://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-edge/548428-vibration-buzz-when-i-pick-up-phone.html> and here <https://forums.androidcentral.com/ask-question/684339-where-do-i-find-motions-gestures-turn-off.html> have not helped me (either they are out of date or I need more detail).

Thank you,
Mike

Welcome to the forums. Do you mean that the ringtone stops when you pick up the phone before attending the call? If so, find the Moto app in your drawer, select Moto Actions and make sure that 'Pick up to silence' is switched off.

Yes. That worked. Thank you very much.
