User level: Level 1 (4 points)While I’m connected to speakers at home or in my car, my iPhone connects to random devices that are not on the list of paired devices. I’m also experiencing an issue with the Hotspot: even after I turn it off, it turns itself back on automatically.

Please post a screenshot of the list of Bluetooth devices to which your iPhone is connecting.

Tap Settings > Personal Hotspot. What is the setting for Allow Others to Join?

Remember that if someone in your family group tries your hotspot, or any devices on your account do so, it will automatically open Hotspot. It is for your convenience.

Even if it is not "convenient", but that may be another discussion.
