Has anyone else seen playback controls on an iPhone lock screen that slide out from the side of the screen? It looks like a '<' sign which slides out to reveal an index finger, rewind, play/pause, forward, and speed like 2x, 1/2x etc. My mum (5000 Miles away rn) who's using an iPhone 6s got these ever since she started using a Bluetooth headset. Trying to figure out what it is and how to toggle it off. Thanks!

Hello farazmir,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
We understand from your post that additional playback controls have appeared when using a Bluetooth headset. These controls may be part of how the Bluetooth headphones can be controlled. Check with the headphone manufacturer and see if it is a feature of their product. If so, they will be able to tell you if the feature can be disabled.
Best Regards.
Hi!
Thanks for the reply.
I realised a few days later that this wasn't due to the Bluetooth headset, it was due to my mum accidentally enabling on screen voice-over from the accessibility settings.
Is sorted now. 😄
Playback controls, please help
