Always On Display no longer customizable on S25 Ultra?

[BryGuy]

Did Samsung remove all of the customize options for the always on display?? I can no longer find any way to change colors, add pictures, change the clock styles, etc. Also, app notifications are now showing up in the left hand corner instead of under the clock in the middle of the screen like before?? And before you ask - yes my software is updated to the latest firmware as of this post.

Go into settings tap lockscreen and AOD, scroll to bottom and tap edit lockscreen, tap the blueclockscreen button. At the bottom of the menu in Grey, it will say always on display tap that and you'll have access to change your AOD clock and a few other things

Thanks. Already aware of that option. But unfortunately it's not as in depth as the Lockstar was.

[Mr-C]

Agreed.

Hey, just a heads up on the LockStar from Good Lock. It has been gimped a bit. read here...

I read that yesterday too. But the story doesn't address the AOD and since it's still mentioned in the Lockstar description I'm hoping we're still going to be able to modify it. Maybe hopefully in the next update 🤷🤞

Why did they remove the AOD brightness from Goodlock? How am I going to set the brightness for AOD seperately?

[JesterPizzle]

🤷 Who knows why they do half the stuff they end up doing?!? My guess is, They've been delaying the release of the stable ONE UI 7 for the earlier models and had to hurry and get a stripped down version ready for the S25 series. It's so stripped down Google won't give us a Security update newer than October 1st, 2024. SMH

I'm also looking to adjust the AOD brightness as I had with my S23.  The current AOD is not bright enough to see from and distance.

[JesterPizzle]

That's one of the things I'm looking to do as well.

Will we be able to get back aod brightness back someday... is so annoying in the dark , i cant see the time . I upgrade my s20 fe to s25+ and i love this phone but i hate auto brightness on aod .  I hope we will get it back
