I want to rid out of the music widget on the lock screen

Hello to everyone! Please, look at the screenshot below. I don't use this music widget at all, and I'd like to rid out of it. Usually, I go to an application and manage the application right in it.

Is there any opportunity in existence?

iPhone 7, iOS 14

Hi Studio Brand, 


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. 


We understand that you want to get rid of the app that’s showing on your iPhone lock screen and we’re happy to help! 


Based on the screenshot that you’ve posted, you would need to quit the Podcasts app. 


"To quit the app, open the App Switcher, swipe right to find the app, then swipe up on the app.


If quitting and reopening the app doesn’t resolve the issue, try restarting iPhone."


The Apple Support resources below can also help.


Restart your iPhone

Listen to podcasts on iPhone

Quit and reopen an app on iPhone

Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch


Best regards.
