Auto App Opening

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
Does anyone have any experience of Apps automatically opening on their phones every time they put the ignition on?  I'm getting Spotify and the BMW App opening literally every instance off the car ignition going on.  I can't find any options in Apple IOS 18.3.2 in either App Settings to prevent this, nor can I see any option in iDrive settings?  Not a major problem but it interferes with whatever apps I am intending to use with CarPlay etc and is a distraction especially when Spotify chooses to play stuff I'm not wanting to listen to.  

Thank you.

Steve

	Hi I was playing music from my phone in the car by Bluetooth the other day & when i got in the car the next day it started playing again until i stopped it by pressing the media button & selecting a radio station. I haven’t gone through my idrive settings either to check to see if you can turn this feature on or off Rich
