In the new update . The (LTRTRBLB)controls at the bottom near the sims household and the play pause buttons . How do you remove them? It's very annoying (to me) that it's there, it makes me feel like a newbie... Thankyou .

@Doriiettehappens on ps4 too I know its so annoying its not like we don't know how to change sims 

[Doriiette]

Ikr , I hope they fix it . I was in settings for a while trying to get it off there's no setting for it . 😑
