Today when AirPlaying Apple Music from my iPhone to HomePod, the now playing controls were also showing up on my son’s iPhone Lock Screen. How do I prevent this from happening? I only want it to show on my screen if I’m the one playing.
Got a tip for us?

Are you sharing an AppleID? Your son should have his own. That's how Apple built the system, one AppleID per person.
It might also be that anyone who can control the HomePod can see and control what's playing on the HomePod.

He has his own Apple ID. I’m thinking it’s the latter. Is there a way that prevents him from having access to HomePod? Or is there a setting that will keep what’s playing on HomePod from showing on his lock screen?
