Anyone else had issues with the podcast starting randomly on it's own? I had to delete the download yesterday as it would randomly start while I was browsing on my phone. Weird thing is its just happened again. What is this trickery and how do I stop it happening? Its certainly a not so subtle prompt to go out running but today is my rest day lol.

I tried that but the podcast still keeps starting up randomly on it's own. I've tried switching my phone off too but the minute I switch it on and start browsing on say Facebook or Twitter it starts again. I've had to turn the volume down and I'll just let it run in the background. Here's hoping that works!

That is odd? I don’t use it at all I use my amazon or YouTube music whilst running x hope it doesn’t take up your battery or something??

The podcast is just an mp3 file, so it has no ability to stop and start your device.

It is probably playing because it was the last mp3 that you were listening to and one has to presume that you have your player set up to launch in some way, at some trigger........or something.......or other..........

Thanks. I've no clue about mp3 set up but I'll try to figure it out. For now it has stopped so fingers crossed it stays that way.

Not what you're looking for?
