Vertical clock on the lock screen

[STAJNRADO]

I would like to get rid of the vertical clock on the lock screen and replace it with another, horizontal clock. Is that possible at all? Every suggestion is welcome, thank you!

Are you using an always on display or just lock screen

Saw this in another post it may help

Re: NOTE 8 Lock screen clock

Yes you do have some options, to change the clock do the following:

Go to settings

Go to Lock Screen and Security

Tap on "Always On Display" if it is turned on you will see a time range below those words.

You now have 6 default options to choose from:

Digital Clock

Analog Clock

World Clock

Calendar

Edge Clock

That's for the always on display not the lockscreen.

I know, figured in case they had aod on the local screen.

I think you can have the edge clock on lock screen without aod on

No. The AOD/Edge clock and the lockscreen are different things. Do you even have a Samsung phone?

If you have AOD on, press the power button. What you will see is the lockscreen.

I have a note 8 and have had Samsung for years. I haven't done too much with changing the clock types though. More with aod and lock screen tjjming settings.

If you choose Always On Display and select Digital, Analog, or World Clock, the clock will display on the lock screen as horizontal. Vertical clock is an edge clock setting within AOD

That still won't change the clock on the lockscreen you know. That changes the clock on the Always on Display.

It worked when I had aod enabled and locked my screen. Just giving him options

That's not the lockscreen either.

 

[chanchan05]

I don't understand why this is difficult. Press the power button. The screen with the background image and 2 shortcuts and says swipe to unlock is the lockscreen.

 

[chanchan05]

This is the lockscreen. You're giving instructions for the AOD.

 

[amyf27]

I'm not arguing here. I set my phone to lock with the power button to test this and it worked. It was locked and the clock was vertical. He asked about displaying a vertical clock option and this works.

Again, because what you're showing is not the lockscreen.

Ok, have your screen off then press the power button. I have provided you as well with a screenshot.

The aod is the initial clock display.

 

[amyf27]

The aod is the initial clock display.

I see that the lock screen after that still shows a horizontal clock. Just an option, he could initially see the vertical clock.

He asked to transform the lockscreen from a vertical clock to a horizontal one.

As of now that feature is nonexistent. You can only have the lockscreen clock in horizontal format if there is an active notification. The Oreo update as seen on the S8 brings those clock options to the LOCKSCREEN.

As of now, only the AOD has different clock formats.

In this thread, i think amyf27 has been very helpful and respectful, conversely, chanchan has been rude and rather condescending. With my vote, amyf27 should be added to the Q & A team.

If you have AOD on, press the power button. What you will see is the lockscreen.

Not very professional of you chanchan
