Why does the answer button disappear when I press it but the phone keeps ringing.

[Android Central Question]

Sometimes the Answer, Dismiss buttons appear at the top of the screen, not at the bottom where the answer button is swiped. Sometimes I press the answer button and it answers. Other times I press it and it disappears and the phone keeps ringing. There is no way I can then answer the phone. I can not bring up any screen that allows me to answer.

Which phone?
Is this on the lock screen?

Can you post screenshot?

Welcome to Android Central! Are you sure you're actually tapping the button and not inadvertently swiping that notification back up?
