How do you add you name to the always on display?

Saw a couple videos on YouTube where they had their user name on the AOD with the clock, date & battery status.

I don't remember seeing that option anywhere.
 
You can put your name, or any other info, in Settings, Lockscreen, Information & Face Widgets.
Not sure about the rest. Would like to know too.

I think that's all that can be changed? How mine is have name there well kind of haha
 
I have time (in blue), day and date, name and home phone number, batt percentage and current temp on the AOD. All from settings as @VW Maverick noted and setting notification. I would like to have a month calendar, but...

I delved deeper and found those settings. Thanks.
Which apps are you using for battery and weather?

Edit: Found the battery one. Now I need the weather...
 
I've mentioned in my own thread before that I'd prefer not to have the battery % sign showing on my AOD.

Don't like having my attention drawn to it. :)

I am not sure how @PJRed2008 did it, but one option is to install a weather app of your choice, that has temp notifications, many do, and set the temp notification in the app and it will display on the AOD. I am not sure if there is an easier way on the S8, I have an S7 edge:-( Anyhow, just thought I would let you know of that optionツ
 
Sorry guys, took the night off ;)

After going through many I'm using National Weather Service Now. It's not real pretty but its consistent, accurate and updates reliably.

And, what @LineKill said :)
I guess I will forgive you this one time for taking the night off, geez😉
