Apps randomly opening on their own.

My M9 was locked and charging while I was in the shower. When I got out I noticed my phone was unlocked and awake. When I checked it Google Maps was open. I didn't touch it at all. I've noticed a couple of times when I've taken it out of my pocket that random apps would be open. I just assumed that I didn't lock it when I pocketed it. Now I'm not so sure. Has anybody else had random apps open on their own when in a locked state?
 
I had to turn off all the motion launch gestures. When I first got this phone, I took it out of my pocket at work and I had about ten open apps and the screen was on the dialer. Turned all those off and use a pattern lock while working now.

Yeah, I did that one of the first things. Used to drive me crazy with my M8. Still can't figure out how they opened on their own this time though.
