Can we please get the media controller back into the notification shade?

This is crazy to have to get to it with two swipes. It should always be front and center.

OK, please explain what exactly you expect when you pull own the quick panel and what you should see in one swipe, what application or media should be showing you want, etc. I am requesting earnestly.

When music is playing or any media is playing, notification shade always shows player controls just like it did on S24Ultra and every previous version of OneUI going back to TouchWiz days.

That has always been the default setting but now they've moved it to a second page requiring more swipes, or to other locations that you can't get to when the screen is on.

It was always there with a single swipe down.

Always.

Ok, if the media is active in the background, it will show up, just like in my previous example. But you are not good on the grouping issue as being cluttered. That's fine I get it and it's purely a personal dislike. Maybe making a suggestion (I cannot remember how that works) and people agreeing with it could spur an update as Samsung deva read them.

Having said that, in the image I showed earlier, I get that using the panel setting for one swipe, you already explained that won't work for you in appearance. But if you have something playing, clicking on the the media output button on the one swipe your ok with, will bring up a separate applet showing what is playing and can be controlled from there. But once you get out of that view, then opening process has to be completed again to bring that back up. So for now, the only solution is to use the "Separate" setting in the panel settings to get in one swipe to see.

Note the left side which is my pull down, that where on the 2nd pull down (it can be one pull down as I showed earlier how to do that) it shows "Play last song" as it will show that even if I closed my player, etc. On the first pull down it only shows "Device control". On the example you want, which is in the middle, you want to be able to play it right there, correct? Note I copied and pasted the "Play last song" there. And the end result is to have it like the right side to finally look like this? If so, suggest that the function "Play last song" (or something similar) be added to the screen you want in the gestures you want.
