Description
Behaviour: AntennaPod does unwanted podcast starts, even when AP is not shown on running app list, phone closed (screen dark), no known outside stimulus.
Frequency: 5 times so far, recently (less than 2 weeks)
Repro: unsure, as not apparently consistent.
However, all occasions were hours after I listened to a podcast (eg Ezra Klein) with Bluetooth earbuds and then finished listening by AP Pause and disable BT. Later I hear AP continuing the previous podcast thru phone speakers, typically in my pocket. I then open phone, see no AP app in list or AP notification, start AP and AP Pause stops it.
Other: Android 15, all Android and apps updated. Moto Edge 2025
