Hello,
I have been experiencing an issue for several years now with various versions of the iPhone, Pandora and vehicles. Every time I turn my vehicle on, Pandora opens on my iPhone and starts playing music, even when the app hasn't been opened. In fact, when I open my phone to close the app, the phone doesn't recognize the app as being in use, so I have to open the Pandora app and then close the app. Although, this doesn't stop Pandora from magically playing music again immediately after I close the application. It also refuses to pause when I press pause on my iPhone lockout screen (lockout screen has several options for pandora like pause and next song). The keys work, such as skipping the song and it does pause the application for a moment, but then immediately starts playing again without my permission. The application sometimes even causes interuptions with other applications, such as Audible, and forces me to go into my phone and manually battle the Pandora application until it finally closes and stops overrunning my other application. Currently, I have the new iPhone 12 and a 2015 Honda Civic and am hoping to figure out if there is any solution to this problem. I would also like to state that the Honda Civic has the stock radio system that is Pandora compatible (provides a Pandora button for audio which is separate from the bluetooth option).
