Why does MRA auto launch when my phone is connected to Android Auto? I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S21.

And, I realized with your reply that I should have been more specific. MRA launches/opens on my phone when I connect to Android Auto. No other app opens on my phone. Icons for Spotify, Pandora, etc appear on the Android Auto screen in my car, but MRA opens/runs on my phone.

@Karen-Sturzenacker I will do a test run tomorrow. Last app openend on my Android Auto was MRA. I’ll make shure no app is active on my phone and then check what will happen

@Karen-Sturzenacker did the test as promissed. Phone Android auto Clean boot.
As Soon as the system was ready it opened MRA, just the map.
After a stop and made shure that another app was active on AA it came op with a split screen, spotify, the last app and MRA
There goes mt theory
Maybe @Corjan-Meijerink can say something usefull to the case -
