Hi Cara. Thanks for your insights into what is happening with this. I haven't experienced this again lately and I'll keep this in mind if or when I do. I know that it is supposed to start or stop audio functions in apps being used at the time but I didn't think it would actually launch audio apps which were not already running. If that is the intent though, the behavior makes sense. As I think back over a longer time span, I seem to have had a problem with 3GS launching music when I was trying to make a call by voice command. Caused me to mutter about paper cups and strings from time to time but never caused me to seriously consider changing my phone<smile>. On balance I am very pleased with the new IOS and will have to see this issue crop up more than I have so far before adding to the avalanche of feedback emails. I do agree with you that the end users should not be forced to act as beta testers and product launches should not take place with known serious bugs. An update as highly publicized as the IOS 7 would be very hard to postpone so an awful lot of thought should go into realistic goals in accessibility improvements with a major upgrade. The CICD approach mentioned in another post might come into play to add these improvements in 7.05 or 7.1where the company would not be doing a release with the whole world watching. I would vote for a delay in accessibility upgrades for six months or so if it meant a better product with more complete beta testing by those who want to be beta testers. Regards, Wayne

This could be audio you're listening to in the audible app or music (or radio) from your iTunes library. I don't know if this would apply to third party radio apps but I do know this works with the music and audible apps.

I deleted that and I think it may have been radio but not sure. I don't have music on my IPhone. Why would it start any music if the music app isn't running? -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Cara Quinn Sent: Saturday, September 28, 2013 11:14 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: bard questions For what it's worth, I'm betting that the two-finger double tap from your home screens will start whatever audio you were last playing in the music app. So in the case this is starting iTunes Radio, was that the last audio you were playing when in the Music app?

It has happened while on the home screen or in the applications manager on my phone and my wife's phone as well. Within apps such as Bard, they can apply the api Carmen mentioned and fix it, but if it happens on Apple native apps, I can't help something is happening to cause ITunes radio to fire outside the music app and this doesn't seem like a desirable event.

I even took all my music off hoping it would only do play/pause on the bard app, but no, it sometimes opens itunes radio and plays songs there instead, and sometimes it starts and stops the bard app playing.
