I remember being able to change the clock style for AOD, but I cannot for some reason now. My current AOD is a copy of my walaper, but I remember being able to change AOD independent of wallpaper. What that happened?

Tapping the AOD image does morning.

If you go to Settings, Wallpapers and Style, you should find AOD changes at top left of the page and also if you have Good Locks - Lockstar you can make changes in that app

Hi loda123,

Thank you for raising this question. Your observation is correct — Samsung has recently adjusted how Always On Display (AOD) customization works on newer Galaxy devices. Previously, users could freely select and change the clock style independent of their wallpaper. However, with the introduction of the “AOD with wallpaper” option, the system now mirrors your lock screen or home wallpaper onto the AOD. When this mode is active, the clock style customization is restricted, which is why you no longer see the option to change it separately.

To regain independent control over the AOD clock style, you can try the following steps:

  • Switch AOD Mode

    • Go to Settings → Lock screen → Always On Display.

    • If “Show with wallpaper” is enabled, disable it.

    • Select a standard AOD style instead of the wallpaper-based option.

  • Customize Clock Style

    • Once “Show with wallpaper” is turned off, go to Settings → Lock screen → Clock style.

    • You should now see the full range of clock styles available for AOD.

  • Update Software

    • Ensure your device is running the latest One UI version, as Samsung occasionally refines customization options.
