After updating my phone yesterday to OneUI 7, Now whatever I am playing on my phone there is a huge island kinda thing telling me what I am playing. I don't like it for privacy reason and for using too much useful space for other notifications.
I know there is an option in the settings that let you disable Now Bar but it removes it from everywhere. I don't mind it sitting in notification panel or lockscreen for quick access controls.

Hi jaggie,

Thanks for the feedback on the One UI 7 Now Bar. We understand your concerns about privacy and space. Right now, disabling it removes it everywhere, but having it only hidden from the status bar would be a great option.

We’ll share this with the team, and you can also submit it via Samsung Members > Send Feedback.
