For some reason it keep coming back. Especially when I start driving or I am in the car

I have the exact same problem. Like you, I deleted the music app, etc, etc. My sceen looks exactly like your screen and now it’s happening on my iPad. 😬

I do the same thing for mines. I hope there is a way around it.

Note: as of this posting, today (Jan. 23, 2018), there is no additional update to the iOS... currently running iOS 11.2.2

I tried closing everything, I even taped on music and then closed it. Nothing, it still is there

I solve this issue by restoring my phone and it work. Try

I told my IT guy to get me a new phone. Now I have what seems like a label maker. Are the Russians doing this to us?

This has not worked for me: Going to Settings/Music/ and turning "Show Apple Music" to off does not solve the problem.

Thank you -- I will try this and let you know how it goes!

This is what my phone does, I've double clicked, closed tabls in google, safari, Pandora etc. I can't get to go away.

i had the same problem, I just updated to iOS11.2.5 and it disappeared. (iphoneX)

Ive updated to the iOS11.2.5 and it disappeared (iphoneX)

Update 11.2.5 did not work for me, and I turned the Music app off, etc. Nothing and I wan't this stupid player gone!

You said it. I’ve tried all of the suggestions. We need a real fix. And I don’t want to reboot my phone!!!
