What is the Always On Display?

The Always On Display (AOD) setting lets you see key information from your phone on the standby screen. This includes your clock, images, notifications and what music is being played. The AOD allows you to get the information you need without unlocking your phone, saving you time and energy.

 

Adjust display options and settings

Under your Lock Screen Settings, tap on Always On Display. From here, you may adjust how and when you want your AOD to be shown.

  • Tap to show for 10 seconds: This is the default setting. When it's activated, you must tap the screen to make your AOD appear for 10 seconds.
  • Show always: This setting will display AOD continuously whenever your phone screen is off.
  • Show as scheduled: This setting shows your AOD based on a set schedule. Use this setting if you want AOD to display at certain times.
  • Clock style: You can customise the clock type and colour. You can even upload your own images or GIFs. Tap Done to save.
  • Show music information: Enable this to show music information when the FaceWidgets music controller is in use.
  • Screen orientation: Choose whether you want your AOD to be displayed in Portrait mode and Landscape mode.

AOD or Always On Display is one of the reason I came over from Apple ecosystem to Samsung ecosystem... Really hope that Samsung would bring AOD to their bigger form factor product like my previous Galaxy Tb S7 Plus 5G... I really like to have this function on it...
