How to get Music off iPhone lock screen

I have a IPhone X. Yesterday, all of a sudden, the widget for Apple Music began appearing on the lock screen. It takes up most of the lock screen so new notifications are pushed down and barely visible without scrolling. I cannot figure out how to remove the widget from the lock screen. Any help would be appreciated.

SOLVED - Yes, you are right. As soon as I "upgraded" to 11.2.6 the music widget was back. But I think though I have the answer now.


Go to settings>Face ID & Passcode - Go to "Allow Access when when locked" which is near the bottom and turn off 3 things - Today view, Control Centre and Reply with Message. It shows up if music is playing but disappears if the music is paused but only when it is paused when the phone is unlocked.


If this fails turn off Home Control as well.
