My Samsung S23+ updated today and the clock style on the Always on Display screen changed. I can no longer adjust it like I used to because there is no Clock Style option under Settings > Lock Screen (actually it now says Lock Screen and AOD). Can anyone help? I need a larger, brighter clock because I use my phone as my alarm clock and can't see it from my bed now.

That ONLY changes the clock on the LOCK SCREEN.
I want to be able to change the clock on Always On Display and can't get anything to work!

It's not available on the S23+, either.  Can no longer double tap the clock on the AOD and very simply adjust the clock brightness as before the UI update. I can find no way to adjust that.  It is on an auto adjust now where it dims and brightens depending upon the light in the room for example.  I'm not concerned with clock styles or colors, just brightness.  It's so dim!  I also tried the GoodLock/LockStar thing and the AOD clock is STILL dim.

The brightness slider is inside of the newest version of lockstar 6.1.0.11 which is rolling out you also have to have your AOD updated to version 8.7.99.111712131321862.jpg

I hopped on here because I had the same issue after the software update and it annoyed me.  While GaryB82 is correct in that the AOD clock is linked to the Lock Screen clock just to put it in laymen's terms the 2 clocks are no longer independent of each other in the style you select. Whatever you pick for lock screen that will be your AOD clock style as well.

Anybody else have an ugly pink text color now for their clock on the swipe screen? I can't find any way to put it back to White.

I am having the same issue after recent update. I used to double tap on the AOD clock and the brightness bar would appear right under the clock. Easy peasy. Never had to open in any settings and/or app. Now I tap it and it just opens to lock screen. Ugh!

Can we go go back to the old AOD so I can change the clock size.   I use this as my clock at night and without my glasses the numbers are too small for me to see in the dark.     I don't use any wallpaper on my AOD.  Stop treating everyone the same (iphone)  Samsung is supposed to be customizable for each person.
