Radio starts playing on iPhone after disconnecting from CarPlay

Hi

I use car play (via Bluetooth) to listen to radio stations via an app, it plays fine in the car and when I turn the engine off and get out it stops playing in the car. But once the phone fully disconnects from the Bluetooth in the car (usually a couple of minutes later) it starts playing the radio on my phone. As the sound is off I don’t always remember to check and it can sometimes be playing for hours.

Anyone know if there’s a way to stop it?

Thx

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 15

Hi Aunt_sally,

Is it the case that a third-party app is opening after disconnecting to CarPlay? If an app on your iPhone doesn't work as expected, follow If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open:

"1. Close and reopen the app

Force the app to close. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

2. Restart your device

Restart your iPhone or restart your iPad. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

3. Check for updates

To see if updates are available for the app, open the App Store, tap your profile icon, then scroll down to see if updates are available. If updates aren't available for the app, update the software on your iPhone or iPad.

4. Delete the app, then redownload it

Delete the app. When you do this, you might lose data that was stored in the app. Then redownload the app. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed."

Note: If the issue persists and " you found the app on the App Store, contact the app developer."

Take care.
