Today a certain event was happening on most major TV and radio stations. My iPhone decided to play this event and really drain my battery for a number of hours. I could not get it to stop. Closing all apps, rebooting the phone, turning on airplane mode, nothing could stop the audio except silencing the volume. Anyone know and have a way to fix this?
 
Off hand, no.
I’d start with reset network settings, then reset all settings.

Erase all - you can restore from last iCloud backup.

But I assume you or one of your apps installed or downloaded ‘something’ nefarious. Something embedded in a sound or video file.

On the phone with Apple.... They don't know why it would do this and how to solve it. They told me to call them the next time it does it. Bu the problem is that it does not do it everyday, just once in a blue moon. I also had this issue with my iPhone 8 as well.

If that is true I just deleted my radio apps. Strange why it would stream after I turned off cellular data.

I am not resetting network settings and typing in all my WIFI passwords again. The last time I reset network settings it did not fix jack.
