It works for you with screen off?

Yes, it works with the screen off. Since my voice is the trusted voice, it unlocks the phone and open GA right up.

So just to be clear. Your phone is not charging, the screen is turned off and you can say Okay Google and it turns on? Because I can't.

No, I had mine on the charging pad. Ok Google is not working when not charging. That is the same behavior as Google Now which is not new.

Ah ok. Cuz you said works just like my pixel, I assumed that to be literally.

I have to say "ok Google" several times before it works.

Always on! Also when is on my desk

Hi, is there a way to disable feature that turn off display when i don't wear the watch?
Nope. it only stays on when you're wearing it. It sees your pulse/heart rate to know if it's being worn.

It should turn off when on your desk. Check the settings under display and see how long the timer to turn it off is set for. Maybe it is too high.

You are looking for an app called: I am alive
Find it in the app store, it's free. It will let you keep the active watchface always on (so not the AOD).

Thanks for the tip, for now i use that app but it was better to have watch working normally (with dimmed watchface) also without wearing it...
After 1 year no news? It's still not possible to have the watch full working without wear it?

Not pressing it but touch it for like 2 seconds and it will take the picture

Sorry for the other pic. Unable to delete it for some reason. Attached by mistake
Wow, you will never guess what setting caused the problem!
I had my volume button action set to zoom. When I switched it to trigger the shutter, suddenly the fingerprint trigger started working again! This makes no sense.
EDIT:
Strange... It only worked twice and now I can't get it to work again! What is going on?!

OK Google.. with screen off.. A good feature that's Working :)

Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..
Apologies if you already knew this before but it's kinda new for me.. Just thought of sharing this with anyone who is like me...
Thanks for sharing. Can you share the settings steps for it.

Lock ur phone and try saying ok google.. It will unlock

Thanks ! I never used Google Assistant, but I may try if it is so easy...provided the permanent listening does not eat battery ! By the way, any changes in battery drain when using this feature ?

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..

If sommone Not Getting beep sound while assistant wakeups you need to enable Switch acess in accesability settings

Plus Beat alternative

I came from one plus 6T and I think that best way to deal with no LED notifications was app called Plus Beat. It activate stock ambient display according to predefined time interval. Sadly it's no working on 7 Pro anymore. Anyone is aware of good alternative for that kind of app?
Hello
I also come from the 6T and I have installed it in my 7 Pro.
I think it worked better in the 6T, but I do not notice that goes wrong in the 7 Pro.
The only thing that ever worked for me is the option of DND profiles. When I set it up and activate it, I get into the app and the Option Enable Plus Beat It's off.
Anyone know how to fix it?
There's another app. It's called "Always on Edge". Works fine for me.

Tried Pixel Pulse today and doesn't seem to work either. Notifications come in, however they do not reappear again(pulse). Tried Always on Edge and Pulse Beat neither of them pulse, which is weird because Beat Pulse worked perfect for a day. Battery optimization was off for these apps.

It's really strange, some reports pixel puls working other they it's not working.. So far pixel pulse working flawlessly for me. It repeat pulse until notification it's dismissed. I try some edge but didn't like it. I prefer apps that use native ambient display rather than screen overlay..like aos edge or any led screen app

This may be a very dumb question but is there a way to dismiss notifications from the actual notification screen (I believe this is the ambient screen)?
The only way I've been able to dismiss notifications is to go into the lock screen and swipe away the notification.

Nearby Share

Has anyone else noticed that Nearby Share toggle is gone? Have had it on 20 Ultra since getting it on the 18th, went to use it today and its gone.

Yep same here. That's odd.
When I went to use it, it was there. Clicked it nothing happened. Swiped down again it was gone. Strange thing is, I have it on 10+

Probably because it makes it a duplicate with the newly released Google's nearby share.
But it's strange that it disappeared by itself.

I hope this doesn't turn out like dark mode for the main Google app on the S20 ultra. I had it available for a couple of days after launch, but then it was over two months before it was rolled out.
If the same thing is happening here and Google is controlling for devices, then perhaps the Note20 Ultra is too new for Nearby Share, and so the switch hasn't been flipped yet. I just hope we don't have to wait too long for Google to figure that out.
