I have the music icon on my Samsung fit 3 

When i play music it's still shown and it's hiding the watch face .

How i can remove it?

In band setting, under advanced features, turn of "Show on going icon"

Ok, then please try these steps, on your band, go to setting, then display setting, then turn off Show media control. Hope this will help you.

When music or a video is playing, the media controls will always be displayed and cannot be removed.

That's really unfortunate. The amount of people who listen to their music via a different connected device (earbuds, headphones) is so ridiculously high and those already have integrated controls. The media control icon covers the watch face, overrides other ongoing' icons (timer!), and probably worst of all is an unnecessary drain on battery life. I've been digging into Android settings to see if there was a way to completely disable the watch's (or more specifically the Fit3 Plugin app) from accessing media controls and have been unsuccessful so far. If there is any way at all to send this request/comment up the chain to allow complete disabling of media controls, I would greatly appreciate it.
