iPhone Lockscreen Music Without Replacing Clock

[wargnerm]

Is there a tweak that always shows music controls and doesn't replace the main ls clock?

There are some work arounds, you can use Jukebox to add music controls to your NC. Then use lock info or bulletin to put the NC on your LS

It *looks* likeMusic Controls Pro 6.x does. I've used it (and it's predecessor) for a few years now and love it, though mine is configured for a setup different to that pictured. (I have a status bar drop down and custom lockscreen.) It has a five day free trial, so it might be worth a try.

Springtomize can also put the NC on the lockscreen. Just throwing it out there in case the OP has it installed.

I kind of like this, I downloaded it and using the 5 day trail. For some reason I do not get the album artwork on the LS

LOL--I had the reverse. Had to use a trick I found a long time back to get rid of the artwork because I'd rather see my custom lockscreens. But I use this literally all the time in the car and at home. Being able to swipe left and right to switch songs, up and down to control volume is a HUGE convenience in the car. I have the iPhone in a holder at the top of the dash and don't have to take my eyes off the road to aim for a small button on the screen. It's nice too because it controls many different apps. It even works for volume & play/pause for MLB AtBat's audio feeds.

Yea I think some other app I have I must have clicked an option to not show the album art. Just have to remember what that was.

Check Springtomize, if you have it. I've been told it has that function.

You know I thought it did too, I have been looking through it but have not found it yet.

Edit
I found it, it is disable artwork.

Now if I can get the battery to "not" show when charging.

Not sure if you use Flex but it has a patch to show the wallpaper on the lockscreen while the battery is charging.

If you want the controls to keep showing when playing music the tweak is called AutoLSMusicControls

 

[wargnerm]

I use PowerMusic Mini Player. It has gestures option and allows you swipe to control your music from LS. Also it doesn't take too much RAM.

I have been thinking about giving flex a try. I tried No LSB but it did not play well with Music controls pro

I just purchased Flex 2 nights ago and wonder why I waited so long. Everyone says it can replace springtomize. Feature for feature that is wrong because springtomize can do some things that, at least right now, flex can not do. However, including the springboard, flex can tweak pretty much every single app you have installed. So looking at it like that, flex does way more than springtomize. But there are some things springtomize does that flex cannot.

I can confirm, using flex to hide the charging battery on the lockscreen works perfectly! Your lockscreen will look exactly like it looks when you are not charging. I am really happy I purchased Flex. I can't stop playing with it haha.
