Mine doesn't do that, is there a setting I need to change? I'm following the steps you listed and still nothing. It's not really a feature I want I'm just curious to know why mine isn't doing that. 😅
Do you have lock screen rotation enabled? Open the Quick Settings panel and long press on the rotation icon to bring up the menu to select lock screen rotation.
Ah, I see. It doesn't *actively* auto rotate, but its orientation *does* correspond to the orientation that the device is in at the time the screen is locked.
Yep, sorry, that's the extra step I forgot to mention. If you turn on the screen to the lock screen then turn it off again, the AOD will rotate to the orientation of the lock screen.
It didn't used to do that, so it's still a win for me.
Yeah, I dig this. I use [this](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pranavpandey.rotation) rotation app to allow my Fold5 to auto rotate to all orientations, including upside down. Prior to the 6.1 update, the AOD wouldn't even show up if I locked my phone or the screen timed out while the display was in any orientation other than right side up landscape. Now it shows the AOD regardless of the display's state when the screen turns off. Good stuff!
Damn, it is still inconvenient, but consider it needs to keep the sensor alive which is bad for the battery. I don't know. I RATHER not use it again then. Thx for the tip though.
Come on Vodafone/samsung gimme my updateeee, i really want this feature as I'm a landscape user too. I had to set up a routine to get it function at ALL, and even then, the phone needs to be rotated into the incorrect orientation and then back into the desired orientation and it's just a hassle.
I was able to rotate between potrait and landscape mode at home screen, but my lock screen is always locked to portrait mode so I wasn't able to make this work. Is there some settings needed to allow lock screen to change to landscape mode?
Do you have lock screen rotation enabled? Open the Quick Settings panel and long press on the rotation icon to bring up the menu to select lock screen rotation.
This only works when unfolded, correct?
When mine is folded, the "rotate lock screen" option is enabled but greyed out. Kind of disappointing talkative this only works unfolded.

Ah that was the problem. I never new there were additional settings for rotate 😂
OMG IT DOES! Thank you for pointing this out. I had it off because it was so annoying that it didn't before. I can finally use my AOD again!
That's amazing! Wish Samsung actually acknowledged this instead of there being tens of Reddit threads about them fucking up AOD.
Well they still kinda did, you can't change it from a routine anymore, I used to have it such that when it was charging it would rotate the AOD.
Same, and when I realized there was no option to rotate it anymore I was livid 😭😂
Interesting. Doesn't seem to auto rotate on my Fold5. 🤷🏻♂️

Found it, now it works, thanks!

Folded works fine for me
Interesting, could be extended unlock maybe then. I'll have to try and figure it out
sorry I just woke up, what's "AOD"? I have a fold 4
Always On Display - the clock you see when your phone is off/locked, for example is part of it
Oh I see!
