Lock Screen problem On my Lock Screen I have a “now playing” menu that shows up. This is very annoying because my phone is locked, but if I touch it in my pocket it moves the bar on my podcast and loses my place. How can you get this to not show on your Lock Screen. I have a 14 pro max

Playback controls, please help 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!

iOS 14: Remove music and podcast controls from lock screen I have an iPhone 8+ running iOS 14. It is typical for me to listen to music when I go running, but the default iOS accelerometer and lock screen functionality is causing me problems. When I run, the motion causes the lock screen to turn on, and exposes the pause, rewind and fast forward buttons from the music and/or podcast apps. Inevitably, body and pocket contact will cause the app to pause the music, interrupting my exercise. The most obvious solution would be to have an option to remove the music control buttons from the lock screen. Several web searches and YouTube videos with incorrect remedies and instructions later, I am no closer to resolving the issue. Any ideas on how I can stop the music from being paused when I am running with the iPhone in my pocket?

Try this -> Tap the AirPlay icon.

Turn AirPlay -> Off

Check also If the AirPods connected, if so you will get the music player.

Disconnect the AirPods.
