Music showing up differently on lock screen - General Questions and Answers

Hello there! as the title states music shows up differently on my lock screen.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S10 5G, Android 12 & One UI version 4.1 - Lock Screen Version 7.1.89
The first image is my current lock screen and how music now plays. If I want to change songs I would have to click on the clock for me to get access (a screen recording will be provided below). This is frankly too much when trying to change music. If anyone knows how to change it back into the previous way as seen in the second image (not mine, but is how I would like the music player to show - as it did before).
I know its not big of a deal but I usually play music while driving so having to press an extra button (while unlikely) seems like a safety risk.
I have tried:
- Resetting app preferences
- Turn on/off notifications on Spotify
- Turn on/off playback on Spotify
- Logging out and back on Spotify
- Uninstalling and reinstalling/ Updating Spotify
- Tried a different music app. Same thing
If anyone knows how to fix this it would be mean a lot.
Thank you.

Use the "media and devices" to associate the music being played with it and set visibility on the locked screen.

[App]Dockat -- a dock support gesture

To access Google Now, just swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
So can this gesture do something special instead of Google Now?
Somthing like a Dock?
Yes! This is the DOCKAT!
Dockat is the most convenient and intuitive way to switch between applications and adjust system settings for Android 4.1 and up.
Whether you're in the browser, at a home screen, or anywhere else, you'll always be able to call up Dockat by swiping up from the bottom edge of the screen, which is exactly the same as launching Google Now.
You can make your own Dockat by adding the most frequently used and favourite apps just like Dock.app in OS X.
And there are more:
1. Music Controller
Display the information of the now-playing music with three function keys, Fast Forward / Rewind and Pause / Play.
2. Quick Settings
Easy access to the Setting Menu and a slider to adjust the brightness setting.
3. Full-screen gestures
Swipe down to expand the notification panel. Especially designed for large screen phones.

Rogue beep when finishing PIN unlock

Just updated my US GSM (xt1034) to KK443 last night, had done a restore from the factory image because I had made a change to the system making the OTA fail and complain about my gmail apk.
Anyhow, all went well, 443 was running, restored apps via TB, everything was kosher. Seems like the issue of it playing an annoying beep when unlocking the lockscreen started right after I went to the Motorola site to test the lost device thing. I told it to play an alarm, it worked, could not turn it off like you can do with Google's Device manager. Had to power off via the menu while the alarm was blaring, had this rogue beep upon lockscreen unlock ever since.
Goddamnit! Pissing me off. Hate to do a factory reset after I just did the full monte last night.
Any bright ideas?
Googling failed me btw.
Added a wav of the sound, plays along with the regular Android sound which you can't hear. Had to zip it, can't upload wavs here?

Went back to the Motorola device manager page to try to re-enact and this is what they call "Peace of Mind"

Easiest Solution
I encountered this exact problem on my G...after much headaches and fidgeting with settings....decided to simply reboot and re-use the moto website to ring youmy device again & after unlocking your phone the beep should go away

[APP] Screener: app to "watch" youtube with screen off

Hello,
I made an app which lets you watch youtube with screen off (it's just a black layer)
The app is most effective for AMOLED displays as it draws a black rectangle over youtube (or any other app) on request
Why did I need it:
Most of the lengthy videos I watch such as music albums, science talks, radio podcasts, etc do not need the video display but rather just the audio
It's a good way to save battery, I used to get around 15% on the next morning, now it's about 35%
How to use it:
Tap on the sticky notification if enabled. After the configured delay (default: 5s) a black layer will "turn the screen off"
Tap on the floating button inside the app to have the same effect
Tap on the black layer to remove it and switch your display back on

}
Download (attached):
View attachment screener-v1.0.1.apk
Developed and Tested on S6 Edge (5.1.1)
Things I should do:
- Make removing black layer by double tap on long press to avoid "accidentally" removing when phone is in pocket (subscribe, maybe I will roll down a few updates/revisions)
- Make app start with android (option)
- Test on Android 6 Marshmallow
Looking forward to your feedback
Thank you
Update v1.0.1
- Made the black layer disappear by long tap to prevent it from disappearing accidentally
Now available on Google Play
Added:
- Long tap to switch screen on
- Double tap to peek for few seconds

Gear S2 Persistent Notifications

I've created an android app which will forward persistent notifications to the Gear S2. I's a work in progress but I believe I have it stable enough to use. I mostly created this originally to get google maps turn by turn on my watch and haven't tested much past that. If you feel up to it please download the development build and let me know what you think. After installing the app make sure you launch it, tap the three bard in the top right, tap "Notification Settings" and finally set "Gear S2 Persistant Notifications" to on. Once you've done this you should start seeing them appear on your watch. If you want to hide any notifications open the app and uncheck the box, this will cause that notification to no-longer appear on your watch. Bugs will be tracked using GitHub so if you wind any issues please post them there!

Google Maps
anybody use this? i'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a gear S2 and the google maps thing would be huge for when i'm on the motorcycle.
Super useful. But it's force closing a lot on the LG v20 stock Android 7.0
An Example: Deleting a file within FX File Explorer causes your app to force close.
Been able to reproduce the issue every time.

[APP][4.0.3+] Netflix Sleep Timer

Beta on the Play Store
What does it do?
It acts as a sleep timer for the Netflix app, putting it to sleep after a set period of time.
How does it work?
It works by initially lowering the volume and brightness of your display, so you don't get awoken by the sudden silence if you're using it at night. It then closes the Netflix app, puts your display to sleep (by changing the display timeout to it's lowest setting), then puts all your settings (volume etc) back to their original values. Job done.
Why does it need permission to modify system settings?
Two reasons:
It needs this permission to be able lower the screens brightness to gently sleep the Netflix app.
To turn your device off afterwards, the technical choices were either a, set the timeout to the lowest level and let the device put itself to sleep, or b, request device admin permissions to allow the app to manually turn off your screen... I don't know about you but I'm not too keen on giving apps admin access to my device
Known issues
There is currently no way to interrupt the app, so if it triggers at the set time, you just have to wait for it to finish - This will be resolved in the next release.
Just found out the app beta didn't actually publish so no one could download it ??
My bad.. It's up now (link in OP) ?
