Voice memo playing on car stereo

So I voice recorded some private things to voice memo on iphone. Suddenly, I am driving down the road and it starts blabbing these private things over my car stereo. I quickly found my phone and pressed the stop button, but it started back up again, and again and again, out loud for all to hear. I'm going to have a car accident Apple if you don't fix this! Not a joke! Yes...I went to settings, cellular, and mysteriously, the toggle was already on off, but still blabbing my words out loud in the car. FIX THIS


iPhone XS Max, iOS 12

Hello and thanks for posting.


First this first. This is a user to user forum, so posts are almost NEVER viewed by Apple themselves.


It is odd that your car is making your iPhone play your voice recordings. I would recommend completely closing your Voice Memo app. Another thing to try is to disconnect BlueTooth from your car stereo.


Hope this helped.


<EDIT>

Also, cellular should have nothing to do with what is stored on the device. When you create a voice memo, the memo is stored directly on device storage, accessible with or without cellular connection.
