I've managed to get them to show on lockscreen but I don't think they can be shown on aod at least just yet.
Lockscreen/notifications
It's not just an off/on switch
You can go inside and choose various levels of show/hide details.

Adding widgets to the lock screen

I have enabled widgets on the lock screen (Settings > Security...). From time to time I can see a big + (plus) sign on the lock screen, and by tapping it I am able to pick up a widget. After unlocking and locking again, the widget is gone and there is no plus sign anymore.
Does someone know what causes the plus sign to show up or how to revoke it?

The + sign is showed when you swipe left or right starting from the upper right or left corner of the screen.
I don't know for the rest of your problem, sorry ^^
Widgets don't disappear, they're just on another screen of your lockscreen. Swipe left or right around your clock and widgets you added will show. It's stupid, and it takes more than one try at first, but it is what it is.
You are both right. Now it works, but it is kind of useless.
Thanks anyway.

Well, I decided not to use lock screen. Now, with press of the power button I have everything needed at my disposal with no limits.

Isn't that related to the theme? I don't have them either so I can't be sure.

Some question on OnePlus 3T and OOS 4.0 (coming from OnePlus One (COS or CM14.1)

1. Is there no way hide notification on lock screen for apps that's always in the notification bar (like Tasker or Call Recorder?)
2. I can't find anyway to turn of the screen by double tap the notification bar (like in COS or CM).

1. I'm using the payed version of call-recorder, and I can disable the notificationbar icon and notification.
2. Sadly this feature (or better gesture) is not availible in oos.

Call recorder is a widely used name for apps that record calls. I use the one from Skvalex, also payed version.
What I mean is that normally apps that shall stay active all the time needs to be in notification bar, but I rather don't see it when I only turn on the display with the lock screen.
In CM and COS I could deal with this with options like "never show for apps always in notification bar".

Hmm, I'm on 4.0 and havn't used call-recorder in the short time I was on 3.5.4, next time I'm restoring 3.5.4, I'll check and report back.
Stupid me! It was because I had no PIN set on the phone, I had no specific options for the lock screen.

Kill the Always On Display

How can I toggle the AOD to be completely off? This is driving me nuts. I'm aware of the settings within the Motion Sense area of settings. The "show when nearby" seems to take, however no matter what I do the clock still appears no matter what as an AOD. I've tried disabling the following in different combinations to no avail:
Motion Sense
com.google.oslo
Pixel Ambient Services
com.google.intelligence.sense
Motion Sense Bridge
com.google.android.apps.motionsense.bridge
Even tried the clock app itself
com.google.android.deskclock
Whenever these are initially disabled it seems to work for a minute or so but then the clock pops back up on the AOD. I just want the toggles to work! This is for when I'm driving and my my phone is mounted where it faces me. I already have 2 clocks in my car and don't need a third it's more of an annoyance than anything else.
Do you have Always On disabled in the Lock Screen settings?

Search for "always on" in settings and turn it off
display / lockscreen / always on - does not exist
Searching for "always on" yields no results.
I don't have a lock screen set as I don't need it, though I did try setting one temporarily to see if the option showed up, but nothing. That's how I used to do it on my note but they moved everything around on 10.

You really don't have always on under..settings/display/advanced/lock screen display....then scroll to the bottom??
Display, scroll all the way to the bottom, select lock screen display, bottom third of the screen you'll see Always on, toggle it off. You can still have it light up by tapping, lifting, or triggered by soli, in any combination if you wish.
edit.. Ninja'ed me Badge, it's there, he just missed it.

It's probably because you went around disabling apps. Enable the Pixel ambient Services.

With everything re-enabled and a hard reboot, I set a screen lock. Then went back to display and the "lockscreen" option was now available. I turned off AOD and then disabled the screen lock and it took. No more clock.
It seems as though the AOD toggle being buried in the lock screen options, which is only available when one is on will take no matter of a lock screen is set. So every time I want to change this I have to go through this process. I wish there was a Quick Settings shortcut for this.

Well it's not exactly meant to be toggled on and off often like the ones in the Quick Settings pulldown menu. The easiest and quickest way is just searching "Always on" in settings and you can actually toggle it right there as seen in the screenshot.

Also if you are not using the active edge for anything critical you might try button mapper by flar2 and see if one of the options can be set to it. Or maybe even on of the other options in his app will apply it.

I don't now and have never had a lock screen enabled on my phone and can and have always been able to enable or disable always on display. Unless you disabled some app affecting this as mentioned above it should be there for you too just as it is for the rest of us. You may want to look into that and see what's hanging you up.

I haven't been able to do it since it was virgin out of the box, the option just isn't there. Doing it on my old Note 8 was super easy it was right where it was supposed to be. Although I have found a workaround for anyone on the off chance I'm not the only one experiencing this.
Being rooted, I downloaded ShortcutMaster and used the app explorer and poked around until I found;
[Setup Wizard]
com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard
tap and scroll down to;
com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard.alwaysondisplay.AlwaysOnDisplayOptInActivity
Choosing [launch] triggers the screen from inital setup to toggle the AOD.
Set it as favorite, or Homescreen (on the paid version)
Launch Shortcut master each time to change it or use the homescreen icon shortcut.
The setting seems to take each time I've done it so far.

Always on display for notification?

Hello,
I know the pixel 5 has no notification led, but I read is supposed to have Always on display (ambient display?) to show notification when the screen is turned off.
Right know, I see no indicator at all for any kind of notification.
Do I need to activate it anywhere? I can't find anything about ambient display or always on display in the settings. Do I need external software like AOE or such?
Cheers
There is no such thing sadly. I use "allways on amoled" to turn the screen on if some notification comes in. Its free and easy to use

No, "show notification on lock screen: show all the contents from notifications" (is translated, may be different)
What do you see exactly?
static/blinking icons on the black screen when the phone is turned off?
Is there a video showing this?

I see a large-ish digital clock, then on the next line the day/date, a weather icon and the current temperature, then on the next line (currently) three notification icons - Facebook, Gmail, and another random app. All centered on the black screen, all in white apart from the weather icon.

Same for me. I can see if there are notifications on the AOD
The Autor asked for a way to only turn the screen on if a notification comes in, not allways. And the Stock System doesnt has such an Option, you need to use a third Party App for this.

This is true, but actually my system AOD wasn't even working properly until I rebooted the phone.
After that, I saw the clock with wheater info on the lockscreen and yes, it has the notification icons too.
Then with the premium version of AOE I kind of achieved what I was asking for. So I disabled the clock and now when I got a notification, it blinks around the punch hole with different colours based on the app.

I just use the built in "Wake screen for notifications" setting. It turns the screen on when new notifications are received. Is that similar to what you're looking for?
Just make sure to have ambient display option "always show time and info" switched off.

Yes but it last only a few seconds. Then blackscreen (unless you show the clock/info panel).

I think you are looking for - under Settings/Display/Advanced/Lock screen = wake screen for notifications.

this doesnt help, because when a message arrives, the display only a few seconds is activated. Then it switches off automicaly again.

Question Custom Message in Lock Screen

I think AOD (Always On Display) has something to do with it but it seems that the option to change the custom text on Lock Screen is removed from OP10 Pro. If true, it is pretty stupid. I mean remove the text set during earlier OS versions and remove the option.
Now I have a text there which could be a wrong info (ex-wife and such) but no option to edit/remove it!
Any help please.
I think you are looking for this...
Settings; personalizations; always on display; display settings; display message.
Is that it?
First of all, thanks for replying.
I do not have Personalizations at all, under Settings. "Always-On Display" is found under Settings > Wallpapers and style > AOD. Under this > More Display Settings > Info does show some info that I can add/remove, but can't edit the message that was already set before OOS13
BTW I am on OOS13.0 (Android 13), v NE2211_11_C.20. No root, no magisk, no customization of any type!

Made an account just to post this and come out of my lurker hole.
To get Google pay option in the lock screen shortcut section available, I have to open "wallet" from the status bar drop down menu. If you open the wallet app this will not work.
Once wallet is opened from the drop down menu's icon, three dots on top right will have 1 option for lock screen settings. Click that and the first option is to change lock screen message text and the first toggle option is to allow wallet access from lock screen shortcut.
Here you can fix your text and or make that other setting available for use.
These lock screen settings are only accessible through this drop down quick menu that I have found and not the wallet app for some odd reason.
I accidentally set a "test" text to see where it would be placed and then couldn't get back to the setting and spent the next 8 hours trying to find it.
Hope this helps all who are as confused as I was.
Probably try Google Assistant application, by voice searching through it for "lock screen text" . It worked for me on Android 13 (OnePlus phone)

The issue is with the AOD custom text message, not the locksreen one.
