Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Until few days ago, the Apple TV Remote app launched from the Control Center included Skip Back and Skip Forward buttons (shown Control Apple TV with iOS or iPadOS Control Center - Apple Support). These have disappeared from the main app and the Lock Screen app on my iPhone, but still appear on their iPadOS counterparts. How can these be restored?
I don’t have all of your listed streaming services, but it is working for me without doing anything special, in the TV app, in the Movies app, in the Computers app, in the YouTube app, in the Netflix app, in the Prime video app. [iOS 15.6.1, tvOS 15.6]
As mentioned above, some content needs to be playing, or it might not show. It has no functionality in the main interface.
What are the versions iOS and iPadOS on your devices?
If the issue persists, try to restart your iPhone.
If the issue still persists after that, then contact the Apple Support staff.

Those buttons appear only when content is playing that allows this skipping, and are hidden when not applicable.
This is affecting content playing across several apps (Apple TV iTunes movies/TV shows rentals/purchases, YouTube, Hulu, Disney+, Netflix, HBO Max, Prime Video, etc.), and only the iPhone Remote. Has there been an iOS or tvOS update that universally disabled the Skip buttons?
