I have a Samsung Galaxy S21 and I just got the new OneUI update. Now when I watch media in Jerboa there's an annoying scrolling notification that appears:

How do I get rid of this?

Also how do I get rid of whatever this is in my edge tray?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: I figured out the first one, search settings for the Now Bar and disable whatever you don't want to see

Glad you figured it out, but I'm really not liking this trend of "just search for it" in settings. Settings should be organized in a way that makes sense for the user.

Sorry I didn't read the other question as well and I had to figure out how to turn on edge panels lol.

Click the pen icon at the bottom of the panel, then click the 3 dot menu at the top, from there, you can remove the default options like the ai select by unchecking them.

You rock, I can't believe I didn't try the three dot menu - thank you!!

Toggle live notifications for "media player" in your settings. I also just got this new update.

I dont like it. Idk why Samsung made everything more appleish but not into it.

Thank you so much! Had no idea what that media chip was called. For others, the exact setting path is:

Lock screen and AOD -> Now bar -> Media Player

I was looking through the top level Display settings menu, and didn't think to look under the lock screen settings. Kind of annoying that I have to disable media controls for the lock screen to disable the flashing animated media chip when the phone is unlocked. Why do they tie the two features together under one setting item?

I'm not sure about your first question. For the second one you can click the triple dot menu and click off AI select

What Android version is the OneUI update equivalent to?

I don't get the same problem on my phone (Pixel 7 Pro).
But I am also using Sync for Lemmy.
Maybe something Samsung specific?
