Why am/pm not showing in my Samsung note 8

[Android Central Question]

I recently update the software of my Samsung note 8. Now am/pm is not appearing in top left corner. Time should be display like 01:49pm instead of 01:49.
I also goto general management-> date and time and turn of "24 hour format" but still am/pm us not showing.

This has been noted before. I suppose the distinction is thought to be unnecessary.

Mine shows pm and am.

24hr format is military time, so no need for am/pm. Have mine set to 24hr format. No am/pm shows. When I switch to 12hr am/pm shows. 01:49pm is not afternoon, it's the am. Just decide what format you prefer.

Not necessarily. Mine has no AM/PM.
I should just switch to 24 hour time since it's required for work.

The picture you are showing is 12hr format. If it was it would be 18:40. What did you have before you switched to 24hr format? My guess would be it showed am/pm. Might depend on the carrier??? I'm on Verizon. But, yes 01:49 is am not pm. That is military time, so there is no need for the am/pm.

So sorry for the duplicate posts. I'm just trying to show the differences on my phone.
