Active Display doesn't pulsate

[race4life]

Well I didn't realize they took the pulsating function out of Active Display. So without a LED notification light or the Active Display pulsating there is no way to know if you get a notification unless you wave your hand over the phone or pick it up. It will go off once but doesn't pulsate. Without that function, it's going back. Really stinks because seems like a nice phone and enjoying the JBL Mod.

i have always preferred the LED light over the active display.

Same here. I had a note 7 so I was trying out the moto z play and the oneplus 3. Going to stick with the oneplus 3 because of the led light.

Same. Just got my Moto X Play this weekend, and Active Display is nothing goog. Will pulse once every few minutes... totally useless. Missing my LED notifications so much, will not be keeping this phone

Is this on only the Play, or the regular Z/Force, too?

It's the same across all the Moto Z's. I thought I would miss it more than I actually have.

So how do you know that you have a notification if the screen is off and you miss the initial pulse?

Let's not forget that sound and vibration is the main notification.

I don't miss my led.
