Anyone know how to get rid of this feature? It's really annoying. I listen to audiobooks while driving and when I get in my car (08 Explorer) and my Fianc?s car (2015 Nissan) my phone automatically starts the iPod/music app. I've experienced this on Android phones as well, so it's not only an Apple thing.

It drives me absolutely insane, and I want to punch whoever designed this feature in the throat! Who thought it was a good idea for this to happen EVERY TIME you get in the car? How do I stop it from automatically starting the music app?

Let me add that "hard closing" the app does not work.
