Apple Pay Displayed when placed in cup holder

Does anyone have issue when you place your iPhone in the cup holder and the apple pay keeps displaying? Even the phone has the screen locked? This has occurred on my iPhone 6s and 7.


Kind of annoying and cant access my music playlist either.

The area is for NFC charging which usually works on most phones on the market except for the iPhone. However, apple pay is NFC chip related, and something about placing it there causes the apple pay to come up.

I experienced this with my iPhone 6S Plus. However, now that I have the iPhone 7 Plus, this issue has not occurred again.

Actually, the surface of the stowage compartment has a chip as well for nfc file transfers. Just close the lid of the stowage compartment and place the phone on top of it. At least it does for Android. I think apple limits nfc just for mobile payments.

Apple needs to implement newer NFC capabilities. I've been using NFC file transfer from my smartphone for more than 4 years. Is there a way to turn off NFC on your Apple device?
