They recommended I go into Settings>General>Restrictions and individually switch off the CarPlay option.Īs previously mentioned, this auto start of the Music app doesn’t just occur for me alone, or only in my Mercedes. Hmm.I called Mercedes and they said the AR-15 head unit in their Sprinter models has no “auto play” feature, and no way in its own Settings to access a way to choose, one way or another, whether it signals the iPhone to start any app when connected. Why is this automatic, Apple, and how do we shut it off! I could simply mute the volume on my Sprinter audio system, but that would also mute phone calls, Google maps instructions, etc, all of which I want to continue to come through the Sprinter speakers. I’m on the road, cannot access my desktop iMac. Maybe this is visible on the desktop iTunes, but not in the iPhone. Click OK, quit iTunes,” but I cannot find said menu in the app. Check the box at the bottom of that window.
This happens even if I completely close the app (swipe up.) As far as I can see, there’s no “Stop” button for the iTunes app, only Pause and Play.Īn earlier 2013 post about this says “From the iTunes menu at the top go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. If I go into the app and hit Pause, then do almost anything else on the iPhone - use Messages or Maps, etc., the music starts again, even though I did not go back into iTunes and hit play. When I plug my iPhone 7+ into the dashboard USB plug (on my Mercedes Sprinter van,) iTunes starts playing, even though I didn’t ask for the app to start.
