My Question or Issue

 I noticed that, even though I close the Spotify app (Home button x2 + swipe up), somehow Spotify is still running. 

 

Just now, I was watching a video on my PC and unlocked my phone, I noticed that a song was playing on my phone and it was from Spotify as it is the only music streaming service that I use. I checked if Spotify was open but the application didn't show up by pushin the home button twice.

 

I'm not sure if it has anything to do but I use the Web Player everyday and is where I'm using Spotify all the time.

 

It's somewhat annoying that a song starts playing on my phone out of the blue.

 

 

Thanks!
