So it would seem one of the features of miui 11 which I looked forward to is not as effective as I hoped. That is the pulsing breathing light.
When the screen is locked, the ambient display brightness dims after a few seconds. If and when a notification comes, the brightness remains dim and you can hardly notice the pulsing effect or even the arrival of the notification for that matter.
I would assume the screen would brighten up and the pulse would be more prominent but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case.
Yes it's pretty useless feature notification dont seem work very well since getting 11

Same here
Got miui 11 on my k20 pro yesterday, feels quite nice but the notification animation (rhythm) lights up continuously when, for example, the Google maps notification is active. Feature is quite cool but this makes it rather useless/annoying.
Got the MIUI 11 few minutes ago.
I thought the ambient display would work like the old Moto X, just showing something when I receive a notification or raise up the phone.
Showing all the time like this doesn't rises the risk of burn in? Or am I missing some option?

You're totally right, I was disappointed this was default behavior

i am also facing same issue... so i m not alone... i tried factory reset but FR didnt helped
Similar issue here, AOD works as normal (although message icons are very dim, almost invisible), breathing light works but only blinks once.. which is quite useless as it's so quick can hardly notice it.. anyone know if there is a fix so it pulsates longer?

Me too, and I really need that functionality.
Messages don't appear on screen for me even after allowing notification permission
Since 11 I don't get any notifications like I did. Screen stays black with AOD turned off but sounds off. With AOD on it does not show any new notifications or any lights go off. Useless.

Have you found any way to fix this?
I really enjoy the notification animation, as the notifications led is not always facing me/not visable.

AOD only works with some apps. Whatsapp and Gmail work. Textra and Outlook do not. It has never worked properly on MIUI. It's pretty useless like this. xiaomi.eu devs add each app (by request) to the AOD. I don't know why Xiaomi have such a poor AOD.

No ?
I dunno if you're still interested, but there is a way to get it to blink more often:
There's an app called Oxygen AOD Mod. It's on the app store, and there's no root. You can set intervals for the horizon light to flash multiple times.

You can root then flash renovate magisk rom that is in telegram for latest, or op7 pro thread for latest stable
Has option to keep screen lights flashing till you view or extended duration
Thank you @heavy95d for this hint :good: the oxygen AOD Mod app looks great and horizon light is working now more than once bedtime (no notification in defined period) also works fine on my OnePlus 7T Pro. only missed calls don't get a notification hint.
battery usage is very low. i had used the app NotifyEdge in the past. also a super app with a beautiful edge lightning. but unfortunately this app drain the battery very fast if lightning is active. so oxygen AOD Mod is the better app for reactivate Horizon Light.
I use the free no-ads Plus Beat app since the OP7TPro day one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vaf.vishal.plusbeat&hl=en
No battery drain and it shows also the notification content on the Ambient Display screen, so non need to unlock to read the messages.
Lot of options, also a Do Not Disturb mode to skip notification alerts while sleeping.
However all these similar apps don't show missed calls and apparently interfere with invoking Google assistant by voice.

hmmm i don't have problems with oxygen AOD Mod app and Google voice.
But the Always On Display (AOD) and the Ambient Display are 2 different things: which does Oxygen AOD Mod use?
OnePlus doesn't have yet native AOD (but soon will do), it has Ambient Display but it's launched only once when receiving a notification and it's not repeated furthermore. Repeating it continuously is just what apps like Plus Beat do.

you are right. Oxygen AOD Mod use Always on Display not the Ambient Display from OxygenOS. But this ist not really a problem for me it works well and battery usage is very low and Horizon Light working now with Oxygen AOD Mod. all is fine :good:

How? Its a completely different chipset? Your asking in the wrong place this is xiaomi mi A3 forums so I'd say ask in your own devices threads or open a question in your devices forums
Don't know why, but it's not working for me. Updated my Google app, turned on/off Ambient display and screen scares.
Still no luck

It is probably a server side change as with majority of new Google features. I just got a prompt if I want to use ambient assistant one day. To be honest you're not missing much. Assistant is showing all status bar icons (even the hidden ones) so it isn't possible to quickly see if there is some missed notification. Also it doesn't show arrival of new notifications. And the "photo frame" feature stops showing photos after few minutes, turning the phone into a fugly always on display. I turned it off and continue using system AOD which is working as one would expect. Maybe ambient assistant will get useful in the future (if it's going to be customizable), but now it seems like a beta version.
Works perfectly on my Mi A3, but i think i'll not use it or at least not the photo gallery mode.
Arc Lighting adds a highly customizable ring of light around the camera cutout of your phone. You can use this light with various indicators such as audio visualization, notification lighting, critical or low battery warnings, as well as a charge indicator. The ring can also appear on your Always-On display. (to make aod work you need to make sure you have downloaded always on amoled and activated it, you also need to make sure samsung stock aod and samsung edge lighting is disabled under samsung display settings you also need to make sure that aod is enabled under arclighting with override set to off)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FibMTD5Mdx8
Features:
- Highly customizable lighting for the Galaxy S20, S20 ultra, S10e, and Note 10. Select a variety of colors, animations, and styles.
- Always show ring with various gradient effects (add multiple colors and make them spin for a visual experience)
- An adjustable glow effect that can be turned on or off (sometimes this can cause the light to freeze to a white glow this will be fixed)
- Notification lighting both when the display is on or off (update planned for only the lockscreen or only inapp)
- Music lighting that syncs the light to your music (does not work together with other indicators so other indicators will stop working if you enable music lighting this will be fixed)
- Battery indicator lighting for charging, low and critical battery states. (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appearm, not configuring zones can freeze the light entirely this will be fixed)
- Device overheating indicator for gamers and power users (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear, not configuring zones can freeze the light entirely this will be fixed)
- Arc Lighting can be configured to match the color of your wallpaper, the app you're currently in, or both! (this only works for the only show ring and only when you set it to a solid color the option is not available for gradient colors which will be added later)
This app requires certain permissions to function correctly.
Accessibility: This permission is used for the ring to appear over your lock screen, always-on display, and for accessing the color of the current app you're in. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Draw Over Other Apps: This permission allows the ring to show on top of other apps. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Microphone Access: This permission is used to analyze the internal device audio for the music lighting. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to enable the Audio Visualizer indicator for the ring.
Storage Access: This permission is used to get the color of your wallpaper. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to use the color of your wallpaper for the ring.
Notification access: This permission is used to change the color of the ring after notifications
Burn-in concerns: Some Android displays may suffer from mild burn-in if a single item is displayed on the screen for an extremely significant amount of time. If you are concerned about this, feel free to enable the rotation animation in ring settings. That will ensure the display is constantly changing. Alternately, you can disable the default effect to only show the ring while an indicator is being triggered. Note: Samsung Galaxy devices come with burn-in protection that moves the pixels a little each time.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
how do i disable individual notifications: currently this is a planned update, you can go into custom colors and set each app you don't want notifying to 100% transparent
light is constantly flashing even if i cleared all notifications: sometimes theres forced notifications such as when you're charging it will force a notification that says you're fast charging, the light will pick up on these you need to hold on these notifications and turn them off to stop the light there should be nothing at all in the notificationpanel, if you still have a flashing light with nothing in the panel contact me.
frozen light: music lighting will disable all other indicators same with battery indicator or battery temp indicator, you need to set custom zones otherwise the light will be frozen, glow also tends to freeze the light so turn that off if it's frozen (this will be fixed in a coming update)
This may be a good replacement to the good ol' notification LED, thanks !
For me it reports, that the Oneplus 8 Pro is not supported.
But i agree, this app could be really handy without notification LED or AOD

Hi, could you send me a code please? [emoji41][emoji41]
This app was initially developed for Samsung Galaxy devices with Always on Display. As OnePlus devices will also get an Always on Display soon i decided to create a version specially for OnePlus devices. For now the app runs in a compatibility mode as the Always on Display has not been released yet. App is in beta stage currently.
You need a notification light / LED for your OnePlus 8!
With aodNotify you can easily add a notification light / LED to your OnePlus 8!
You can select different notification light styles and show the notification light around the camera cutout, screen edges or even simulate an notification LED dot in the statusbar of your OnePlus 8 or OnePlus 7!
This app hides the fingerprint icon, so the icon can not burn in your screen! Enjoy your notification light!
MAIN FEATURES
• Notification light / LED for OnePlus 8 or OnePlus 7!
• Double tap to wake when notification arrives!
• Charging / Low battery light / LED
MORE FEATURES
• Notification light styles (around camera, screen, LED dot)
• Custom app / contact colors
• ECO animations to save battery
• Interval mode (on/off) to save battery
• Night times to save battery
BATTERY USAGE PER HOUR ~:
• LED - 7.5%
• LED & INTERVAL - 5.5%
• LED & ECO ANIMATION - 3.5%
• LED & ECO ANIMATION & INTERVAL - 2.5%
Without notification light the app consumes almost 0% battery!
DOWNLOAD:
DEVICES
• OnePlus 8
• OnePlus 7 (untested)??
• OnePlus 6 (untested)??
NOTES
• The app is still in beta stage, errors may occur!!
• OnePlus may block this app with future updates!
• Please check if the app is compatible before updating phone software!
• Altough we never experienced any screen burn in issues on our test devices, we recommend to not keep the notification light / LED active for a long time! Use at you own responsibility!
"OnePlus" is a protected trademark of "One Plus Technology Co., Ltd"

Nice work. It really annoyed me the stupid fingerprint on the screen while the notification light was blinking in other apps like this one. I miss tapping the screen and show the ambient screen (also when you lift the phone). I've seen sometimes a bug that when I unlock the phone the black screen overlays again (tapping the screen once again disables the overlay, it's kind of annoying).
So far nice work.
Feature request: Hover to show the ambient screen
I'd like to see the AOD from 1+ soon, but if the implementation does not convince me I'd seriously consider buying your app.

I'm sure i'm doing this wrong but it's not working. I set the settings but the light doesnt work either on the lockscreen or when the phone is unlocked. The light does work when i do the preview.
Question, /suggestion...any wait to get more neon/brighter colors?
Whats wrong with the "Choose Colour" Option?

Nothing is wrong, I just want more of a vivid or led look for my notifications. Ok happy how they come out. But I think it would be more noticeable with brighter colors
Yes, actually I want this notification app even in deep sleep. Thanks a lot and will buy it after testing.

Great app, coffee on the way
This might be a stretch, but any chance of having a setting for battery life led that flashes when there's a notification?
I love the app. Works great! Great UI, easy to navigate and set everything up. But most of all I'm thankful that when the screen is off, only the notification LED is illuminated, unlike some of the other apps out there. I bought the Pro version and left a 5 star review on the play store.
But there are a few features I would really like to have added:
- to have separate effect options for the styles "phone unlocked" and "on lockscreen". For example I want the LEDs around the camera to pulse normally while the screen is unlocked, but I want the screen edges to be a different effect like shimmer when the screen is off.
- the bedtime mode is great, but I would like to set different times for different days. I want different schedules for week days vs weekends.
- ability to tweak the lights pulsing attributes much like we could back in the day when phones had an actual hardware notification LED and was running CyanogenMod or some other similar ROM. Their LED control was built in the system settings and worked phenomenally. You could edit things like the speed, how slowly the pulse comes in, how slowly it dims, how long it was turned off, etc.
I hope you accept feedback here. Keep up the great work!

First of all thank you, works amazing and had to buy premium, I just have one request if possible, a separate battery charging time indicator, I set the notification light to work for 15 minutes the battery charging light also turns off at 15 minutes and would like for it to be on all the time while the phone is charging and also maybe add a separate color when the battery is fully charged.
Thank you again for the great work.
