Still not getting all my notifications to appear on AOD. I've only seen texts, missed call, and weirdly and Imgur notification on there. No Gmail, Snapchat, or Google Voice. I thought this was updated like the Note 7 to show every notification icon in AOD now. Are there some settings I'm missing? Or is there a better alternative to the native AOD?

It works for me. Shows notifications for every app and I didn't change any settings. Did you simply take an OTA or did you do a clean update?

Just took the OTA and kept on goin. I'm also getting double text notifications sometimes too which is weird. You say you get all icons when you get a noti? Even Snapchat, Gmail, and Hangouts?

Yes, I remember getting them with all, except hangouts because I don't use it. I actually turned the AOD off because I was getting battery drain since nougat, but that didn't help

Make sure in Settings - Notifications, you have the apps turn ON that you want to get notifications for.
I have noticed in the 2 factory resets I've done since the Android 7.0 update, Notification access is defaulted OFF for Always On Display. To check this, make sure AOD is turned on first, then go into Settings - Lock screen and security - Other security settings - Notification access to make sure AOD is set to ON.

I was actually able to figure it out last night. I had some wonky settings in Settings > Lock Screen & Security > Notifications on Lock Screen. Had a lot of random apps with notifications on like Barcode Scanner, a Ruler app, and Rear-Facing Camera. But apps that you would expect to get notifications from like Gmail, Sanpchat, and Hangouts were un-checked. Kind of a misleading name for these toggles as they are not controlling whats on the lock screen, but on the off screen.

Notifications on apps like whatsapp, gmail etc, are very unreliable when the the screen has been off a while. We have the same problem with the Le Max 2 in our house.
Anybody experiencing the same?
No problem here at the moment.

Do you use greenify? That tends to sleep apps, there's an option to keep notifications on so you can get them still. Seems like probably another issue though.

I'm suffering exactly the same issue. When I receive any push message from Hangout or Whatsapp the phone does not play any notification sound, even though when I turn on the screen I can see the notification on the lockscreen and on the notification bar if I unlock by fingerprint.
This morning I realized that if you plug in headphones the notification message sound will get through.... quite weird....
It looks to me we will have to wait for the following OTA and see if it gets fixed. By the way my phone is Chinese/EU version.
Problem fixed easily:
to to the phone's manager/ power saving management, then the lock screen app protection, you need to set those apps 'protected' , so when the screen is off, they are still protected in the background. you may also want to check the align wake up which is another power saving feature. basically, you need to let any apps you want to have notification stay 'protected' when the phone is sleeping. Make sure also check under setting/ notification management, to enable those apps......
It shows what's playing in Yatse, but any WhatsApp/todo list/etc. notifications do not show on Always On Display. Is this intended or am I missing a setting somewhere? I have notifications set to show in the settings for it, but nothing does other than the Yatse.

Idk what Yatse is, but the AOD will not show any 3rd party app notifications such as Whatsapp, Facebook because it's not supported, only notifications you will be shown on AOD are missed phone calls, delivered messages.
It is by Samsung's stupid design. 3rd party notifications are not shown. Only the defunct Note 7 had a sane and normal AOD.
Ok thanks guys, yeah I was used to it from the Note 7 but now on the S7E I thought I hadn't configured it correctly or something, sucks that it's intentional. Also Yatse is a remote for Kodi (media center), it's great!
I'm not sure if this is an LG or Nougat thing, but it's seriously annoying. Whenever I use the phone and I get a notification of any kind, it pops down from the status bar (why can't it just go straight to the 2nd screen???) and persists for a few seconds unless I action it or dismiss.
Is there a setting within notifications or apps themselves to make them go straight to the 2nd screen?

Mine pop into the 2nd screen. What app is causing it? I know Textra was doing that until I disabled the pop up notification

Snapchat and Whatsapp are examples. What sort of notification settings do you have? Are you silencing any apps?

Not silencing anything, I just adjusted the Textra to not show the floating reply.
I don't use Whatsapp so can't speak to any settings in there and my Snapchat I have set to Vibrate only(turned wake screen off). Don't get a lot of Snapchat chats so never noticed if its a pop up notification or not

Weird - I found out that "Silencing" notifications is the only way to get them to not pop up... but then I don't get a vibrate.
System UI is a "hidden" feature of Nougat that LG decided to axe, which is extremely frustrating because it has the EXACT functionality someone needs to have full control over their notifications.

Yeah I want that system UI because in it you can do percent in battery notification so it's not next to the battery
It actually started with Marshmallow and was pretty popular due to the simple tweaks it can do that everyone wants. Unfortunately it seems to be more of a carrier issue with disabling it. Regardless, disabling peeking should be a basic option in settings from day 1. Not a super hidden feature in Andriod M and a above with no guarantee of staying. Textra is nice enough to have its own setting. Why other apps do not is baffling.
Someone finding a way to get to the System UI tuner settings would be amazing. As it is now there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off ONLY peeking/heads up notifications that I have been able to find. Maybe HeadsOff will be compatible with N before long.
I can't reply to any notifications in my notifications panel. How do I turn it back on?
Does anyone know how to get the new notification look? Mine is still just the regular box notification. I'm talking about the heads up pop up notification btw

Me and my girlfriend both have the same exact phone and hers has the new notification look while mine doesn't. Hopefully someone can chime in and figure it out
What are you people talking about???
Try this: Settings -> Display -> Edge Screen -> Edge Lighting
Facebook messenger doesn't seem to be supported at all :/

Maybe im being silly but that looks like an App dependent notification - rather than a system handled
EG: facebook messenger - allows notification overridding screen - maybe thats just a text app that does have this permision in place
Re this i think in notification settings - in the more advanced section you can allow an app to override screen with notifications - tho i know in the new version od android they are eliminating this functionality

While i understand that, what i dont understand is why his has it and others but mine and others dont. He set his up sat next to me and didnt install anything
---------- Post added at 10:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 AM ----------
Ive figured it out:
Pull down quick settings and press edge lighting, its the second page of quick settings. Then in settings go to > Display > EdgeScreen, make sure Edge Lighting is toggled on, Then click on it and press Manage Notifications and choose which apps you want this way
Just like @xPrometheus mentioned

I spent 2 hours yesterday looking for tutorials and videos about that notification style and couldn't find anything. The default messaging app has that notification. I actually ditched Textra just because of that, until I find a way to to have it with it. I love that notification style, I really wish it could be enabled for all apps.
"Settings -> Display -> Edge Screen -> Edge Lighting" had been enabled since I got the phone and it's not the same thing as https://giphy.com/gifs/3o7btVlUtbdelu4L4I/html5
Or maybe it is, but the only application I could find that has that lightning effect is the default messaging app. Facebook doesn't have it, Textra doesn't have it, Messenger doesn't have it, SnapChat doesn't have it, and the list goes on and on..

Yup, same here. I enabled the feature and still no lighting effect for any of the apps accept stock Samsung.

I tried this, but I don't get any notification from apps like Gmail or Instagram. As a matter of fact I only see the small icon appear in the top left corner of the screen from them, and no pop-up or preview whatsoever. Am I the only one?
Only works on SMS for me it seems.
Shouldn't those apps give us some sort of preview like the iPhone does? I thought I used to have them on my old Galaxy S7 Edge.. but I might be wrong and got used to the iPhone now??
I got this working:
First disable notification for all apps you want to show with new notif style
in settings > notification
install SystemUI Tuner from playstore,
then in miscellaneous > enable Heads-Up Notifications.
scroll down and enable Power Notification controls.
now go back to notification setting, tap the app then slide to level 4 or 5 (peek enable)
the notification for the app should be in new style now (edge lighting enabled)
Now the trick so it also works with screen off:
install from playstore: Lightflow legacy
the key is the setting in lightflow must enable "Switch screen on" in the app setting
then you will have edge lighting notif for other apps too.
Mine works with Gmail & telegram & anything that's set up in lightflow.

Thanks for sharing! Going to try this now
Not working. Followed your steps. Not working for whatsapp (control level is max and notification added to light flow with switch screen on in general settings)
Help needed.
Howdy everyone!
I am having an issue with my S10 not displaying notifications. The only notifications that work is the Messages app. When the phone is on a black screen, the Message app is the only one that will display and notify.
I want my other apps... Nest, Wyze, Meross, etc to do the same as the messaging app.
I have googled for hours and tried almost everything i can think of.
Help?
Are your notification settings turned on for each app under settings then notifications?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I checked for each app.. I have even compared to the actual message app that came on my device.
Beginning to notice this issue also
Since the April Update this happened. Looks like its not an "issue" but a system change.
There used to be a setting where you could turn the messages on/off etc...
For instance, i like that my edge panel lights up, and i get the icon on screen that i have a message.
My wife likes that message to be displayed on the screen so she can see it without having to actually go to it.
Now there is a little messges overlay for the stock app that pops up, similar to FB messenger, I actually like this idea, but that seems to be a huge change and i cant find the setting to revert to the old way.
