Samsung Galaxy A12, at the lock screen if I swipe down from the top most, the notification panel drops down. How to disable notification panel from appearing when I swipe down at lock screen? Lock screen is swipe to open. Thanks.
 
Your device may vary, but the general map is...

Settings
Home screen & lock screen
Notifications on lock screen

Your method will only remove the notification icons that appear in the middle of the lock screen.
Here is a same model phone video I found that shows the lock screen settings for your reference
 
So you are talking about the bar at the top that you can pull down to see your notifications among other phone settings without having to unlock the screen.... the actual notification bar, correct?

Correct. From top most of screen swipe down, I do not want to see anything. I do not want to see the wifi, vibrate...buttons and notification panel

not much you can do about that. there is no setting or app that i know that will hide it. for me i need that pull down so i can access the flashlight as i use that a lot for my job. it is very convenient for me to not have to unlock the phone to get to the flashlight......sorry but you are just going to have to get used to it.

if you do find something that will hide it, please post it here. but i doubt there is something like that out there.

During my research I see there are other phones models that are able to change settings to disable drop down panel during lock screen.
I guess just have to search for an app to do it. Any idea what keywords to search playstore for this problem?
