Can I turn off CarPlay?

While I’m on a social app while charging my phone it always transfers to the car, If there is a CarPlay feature on the car that you can turn off please tell me.

Does that Social app appear in the CarPlay display on the screen of your car? If YES, then you can remove that app from CarPlay by open Settings ➡️ General ➡️ CarPlay ➡️ Tap on your car ➡️ Customize: You can then remove the app(s) that you don’t want to interact with on CarPlay.
