If you want, you can remove the automatic music player that appears on the Apple Watch.
The Apple Watch is an extension of our iPhone several times, and there is one especially which, either you love it or you hate it. We are talking about media player that automatically appears on the Apple Watch screen when we listen to music, a podcast or even a video.
This function of the Apple Watch allows us to control what is playing on the iPhone from our wrist. We can pause what’s playing or skip to the next song without having to touch the iPhone. It is a very interesting function, however, completely covers the face of our watch
How to Hide Now Playing on Apple Watch
If you are one of this type of users, whose I don’t want playback controls to appear on Apple Watch automatically, we will teach you how to remove this function. Its name is “Now Playing”, and you can make it never appear again. Follow these steps:
- open app Settings on the Apple Watch.
- Click on screen and brightness.
- Weak and automatically turn off the Open Audio Applications switch.
You can remove the music player from the Apple Watch
You can also disable this setting from the Look at the app on the iPhone and go to Display & Brightness and turn off the Automatically open audio apps switch., it’s the same setting as from the Apple Watch, and you might find it more comfortable to do it from there.
Once you turn off Now Playing on Apple Watch, the audio controls will no longer automatically appear on your watch screen. However, you will see a small icon with a “play” in the upper area which, when pressed, will open these controls again
It’s true that this little automatic reader can be very useful in certain situations, especially when you don’t have the iPhone nearby, but you probably don’t want it constantly appearing. By disabling this option, you will only be able to access the reader when you really want to, and your Apple Watch face will not be covered.
