Does the S21 have this smooth AOD to lockscreen animation?

[Justin04]

I came across this reddit post showing an S10 with a smooth animation between the Always on Display and the lock screen time and date: https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxys10/comments/dz36e8/the_always_on_display_to_lockscreen_animation_is/ 

I can't find any settings on my S21 FE relating to this. Is the feature deprecated, or a known bug that it does not work?

UPDATE: It turns out that this feature is only available on flagship models which is really unfortunate because I don't see why it wouldn't work on an FE...

Are you using the default clock and AOD?

[Justin04]

I just changed it to the default clock and AOD and there's no animation. Is the animation there for you?

[MrChicken]

Yeah I get the animation if I use any of the clocks in the settings app

[Justin04]

Huh, what phone are you using?

[MrChicken]

I got Galaxy Note 10, are you using the goodlock app?

[Justin04]

No I'm not. I'm starting to think it might be a oneUI 2 thing. That's what you are running right? Maybe it might not be available on oneUI 3?

Mines running one UI 4.1, is your phone on the latest update?

[Justin04]

(I don't know why my comments keep being deleted, I hope they all don't just randomly show up now lol) Running one UI 4.1, also factory reset my phone recently so I don't know what the problem could be...
