Music app in notification bar annoyance

[Jake8Bombassa]

When I exit out of a music app (Apple Music, e.g.), the app still remains in the Notification drop down bar. Since I have two such apps I use in conjunction with each other, they both remain on the bar. I like to keep things clutter free, but I don't appreciate effectively having to close these apps twice every time. Can I shut this feature off?

Hold down the apps hit app info then notification and follow my screen shots to get ride of it or adjust how you like. My shots are a different app but same steps apply

I appreciate your assistance, but I’m not referring to push notifications. I would post a screenshot, but apparently I do not have permission to upload images. Push notifications pop up below the app ("mini player") to which I'm referring.

If you hold down on the Dropbox media player then click remove.

That doesn't address the problem. I already do that (actually, I swipe it off b/c that's quicker). The problem isn't *how* to do that, it's that it has to be done in the first place. I already closed the app so I shouldn't have to close it here too. If I close FB, it's done. If I close any non-music app, it's done. Why do music apps on Samsung phones require closing twice?

Swipe is dismiss versus turn off keeps it gone on my device. I guess I would need to see it to know what is happening

Swipe & Remove do the same thing.

1 Play some music.

2 Close the player app.

3 Swipe down to open the notification bar.

4 Swipe OR Remove the player from the bar.

5 Repeat 1-3. The player will be there on the bar again, regardless of what you did in 4. This is what I want to be rid of permanently. This should happen automatically when I close the app.

A few last things to try I dont use apple music but as a example i will use Spotify and YouTube music examples. If it comes back after removal the player itself has permissions you need to stop. Allows media player to reappear by aalowing to run in background or other devices on network or autoplay next song ect ect you will need to find what to shut off in that area. Also uncheck your payback notifications . And last go in your special access menu and shut off "appear on top"
