Every once in a while I turn on my phone and I see the new iOS 11 Music Control sort of Notification. I don't have the app open, no sound is playing, it is just there. I do know that if I restart my phone it will no longer be there. If i don't restart my phone then it will disappear about a day later. I would just like to know what was causing it.
iPhone 6, iOS 11.0.2, Actually running iOS 11 Beta 1
Yeah, sorry about that! I tried to upload a screenshot of the steps to fix it but turns out it didn't work either. It's driving me nuts, too. Sorry I don't have a solution!!
Still a problem for me and I’m on 11.2.5
Did not work. I have closed down all my apps, and the music player still takes over my lock screen. I do not want it there. And I did not listen to anything that didn’t finish anyway.
That’s the thing, no apps are running. No media was played. I found another thread where people are having the same issue. Hopefully someone figures it out or apple addresses it
This is what appears on my iPhone X. I can Get rid of it, but only temporaril. It always returns. I don’t like it there when I u lock my phone and want to stop it from appearing all the time.
Once in this discussion, I can find no way out! I am no longer interested but grt copies of all that is said. Stinks!
Tap the button that says “Following” at the top of this page.
No such button exists on my iPhone. I have pussed every icon and follwed the instructions at the bottom of the page that only take me to general preferences.
I’m using the latest iOS version but it still appears.
But I want my music app playing!
Settings/Notifications - Music - Show on Lock Screen - OFF
NOPE - that's not it.
On mine, it doesn't appear unless something is actively playing. I found this, but none of the options work for me: How to remove Music Player from the lock screen on iPhone in iOS 11 - YouTube
It will appear as long as the associated music app is active. If you can't turn off the music in the app you can kill the app from the multitasking screen. But most well-behaved music apps have a way to turn them off in the app.
Music Controls on Lock Screen.
