Yes, from the main clock screen, swipe down and select do no disturb. The watch will stay on but wont bother you for notifications or turn on when you move around.

[Q] Keep Screen Lit during maps navigation?

Hey everyone,
Just got my G Watch today. I've been playing around with it, and have noticed that it goes dim while using navigation on it. Obviously that isn't very good while driving, because then you have to tap the screen and swipe the navigation card back up. Does anyone know a way to stop the watch from going to the always active dim mode while using the navigation?
Thanks in advance,
Nick M.

1.) This has been answered before
2.) This happens everywhere not just in navigation
3.) No (I wish there was though)

This app now has the option do always keep the screen on.

Every notification waking screen, how do I stop this?

Probably a dumb question, but every single notification I get seems to wake the screen and I can't find a setting that explicitly disables this. I'm using a KIW-L24 running marshmallow.
Would any of you know how to stop this behavior?

Go into settings. Select Screen and passwords.
Turn off the option 'Notifications turn on screen'.
I hope this helps you. Take care!

I'm glad this solved your issue. Btw, No question is stupid. Nobody knows everything. If you never asked, u might never have fixed it.
When in doubt, ask. Take care friend!

This is super helpful, thank you for going through this. I got it setup but still having some issues - the notch light is always on haha. going to have to tweak this some more.
Hey all,
Check out the app LED Blinker Pro, there is an option to have a blinking light on the screen. Looks exactly like previous samsung phones, and you can also have multiple lights for different notifications. Problem solved!

Did you try it and does it work?
Just to know if the API that supports it is there.
It seems the downsides of all the led apps is that once you get the notification you can't unlock the phone with the fingerprint sensor, you have to double tap the screen or something to cancel the app and then unlock the phone.
Working pretty well for me this far. I added this app on my gf's and my S10 Plus's. Besides going through the bevy options we have it setup. The light only goes around the camera when a notification comes in. Still doing some tsing so I'll update if anything.

There is an option though that you can select that if you pickup your phone, it goes right to the lock screen so you don't have to dismiss the led screen.
nice app but it's a killing battery

I noticed that, but then beside it it said it uses more power. I switched to aod instead, if only you could get rid of the clock and date and simply have notifications on it.

You can disable just the clock. I've tired and it works. See attached for settings

[APP] Automate - get Always on Display to turn on only when you get a notification

I was looking for a very simple way of having AOD turn on when receiving a notification only. A quasi notification LED if you will. There was a Tasker method that was a little complicated and didn't work for me that well.
I found that another Tasker-type app does it very simply and very well and takes about 2 mins to step up. Now my AOD only comes on when i get a notification and goes off when i clear the notification.
Here's how to do it:
1. Download Automate from the Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.llamalab.automate&hl=en_AU
2. After downloading, go to 'More Flows...' in the menu.
3. Hit 'Start'
4. Search for 'AOD Manager' - the only entry found should be 'AOD Manager v2'. Download it.
5. Go back to main menu and you will now see it there. Run it! You will have to install a few other Automate add ons and allow permissions but that is essentially it.
6. It also turns on AOD when charging.
Works great!
I have nothing to do with the app or the flow - just found it and thought it is a 2 minute install that works.
Can it work if we've got the medium power saving turned on, I think it'll moan because Medium power saving disables the ability to turn on AOD
Still really cool though, thanks for sharing!

yes it works as I also run medium power savings, you should turn off AOD in settings before doing this.
Thank you for posting this! Works fantastic!
Great find? Works like a charm. This is exactly how I want aod to work!
Works great, is it possible to remove the automate notification?
attached schedule flow where you can set the time when you don't want the AOD to turn on, for example when going to sleep, add it then edit the time that suits you.

yes just turn off notifications for the app.
Very nice idea and taught! I think this should be a stock option.
Thank you.
Can you please also share how you did this with Tasker? I could figure this out myself probably, but have little time and if the task is possible to export or copy, why bother.

First, make sure that you give both app and flow the needed permissions.
Second, go to the AOD settings and make sure the AOD display mode is set to "Show always". If it's set to "Tap to show" it will not work like intended and you will have to tap the screen twice to trigger the phone to show the AOD.
Once the flow is running make sure to disable the notification for AutomateIt. Otherwise the flow will keep the AOD always on since there is a notification running all the time. Same is for listening to music, the notification will keep the AOD on.
And I suggest to disable the logging since the size of the log will quickly get huge.
When I run AOD and start the flow, AOD is always on (like the name says ) but that's what I don't want!

Question Hey google not responding with screen off or locked?

Hey google not responding with screen off or locked?
Tried enabling in the settings, still only works when phone is active?.
I have same problem ... It works only on lock screen, not when screen is black. So for example if I have accident and cannot move my arms, then I cannot use assistant to call for help, because I need to push power button (or double tap screen) first . This is very sad, just imagine how many people dieded because they could not call for help .
LOL, im sure it will get fixed, glad its just not me.
Did they remove the BOOST charge option for you to?

I never heard of boost option what is that ..
In charge setting there was an option called BOOST MODE, i was getting 18 min charge with it on, now its 21-22 mins, not a big difference really, just wondered where it went.

LOL, yeah it probably will not get fixed for a while if ever, its a satey net issue.
God dam annoying though.
A neat workaround is if you have a smartwatch, it still works on that.
