How do i remove the now bar from the lock screen?

[ChadwickS24]

Even if my recent apps are all closed I still get The now bar on my lock screen that I can't swipe away. It's either recent music or a video i was watching.

Settings > Lock Screen and AOD > Now Bar > turn everything off.

I'm getting the same bug. So far only a restart removes it

I've had some success with starting a song and then stopping and closing the app but if not a restart might be needed. Hopefully they fix it soon.

Go to your notifications and long press on the media player. You should see "remove"

Two options I've found to get it to disappear for the moment one open Task Changer and tap Active Apps then tap Stop or close the app start playing and exit out again

I don't like the now bar at all. The notifications and media widgets were accessible before anyway.
