I wasn't able to find a solid answer on google. I have active display turned on. The 6p turns on if I pick it up off the desk (about 10-20% of the time though it doesn't turn on when picking it up). But if I have it in my pocket and pull it out, it never turns on. Is it supposed to turn on?
Yes the sneak view should come on when you make heavy moments on your phone.
Yes, Ambient Display will turn the screen on. at first it'll be in grayscale, but as soon as your finger touches the screen, it will be fully on waiting your input. you can turn ambient display off in settings if you no longer find that feature useful. I recommend turning on the LED Notification light if you prefer that over Ambient Display.
Hi,
I use moto display without gesture detection. When i receive a notification (mail, text message, ...) the screen turns on and slowly turns off which is the expected behaviour. But then the screen keep turning on/off indefinitely until i open the notification or dismiss it.
Do you have the same behaviour ?
Moreover this behaviour is not linked to any phone mouvement as it is just laid on the table without any vibration that could wake it up.
It seems to me that this new bahaviour appeared with MM.
Either you disable Moto display for notifications or slide the unlock icon to the right so it will dismiss the notification on moto display but not on the notifications bar.
Yes, but do you confirm that this is the expected behaviour ?
I thought it was supposed to turn the screen on just one time and not to turn my screen into a christmas tree. Moto display is supposed to save our battery life, not sure it is going to reach that target with this behaviour, especially with a screen that is not an amoled...

It's gonna pulse every minute or so for about 10 minutes I believe. Then it stops. If your phone is face down, it won't pulse at all.
Thanks for your feedback, too bad that we can't configure it, it's way too long by default imo.
I had a problem with the Lollipop and now the MM versions of the Moto Display. You can dismiss the notification, but it will start pulsing again for the same notification a little while later, with nothing new happening. Wasn't too bad with Lollipop, because I just switched to Ambient display which worked perfect. Now Ambient is gone for some reason.

I've checked, i don't have this behaviour on my side, once the notification is dismissed it stops pulsing... i don't understand how it can be different from one phone to another.
Edit : How did you switch to Ambient display btw ?
I haven't found a way to switch to Ambient on MM, you can only turn off Moto Display which gives you no notifications at all! It was easy with Lollipop, just go to the Moto settings and choose which display version you want.
Well it could be acceptable to turn it off with a notification led...

Maybe unfortunately for some, Motorola got rid of Ambient Display in MM.

Does anyone have an issue when pressing the power button, the lockscreen will come back on for about 3 seconds and then turn off again. I can't figure out what is causing this to happen.
Just checked and I don't have this problem. Weird. Have you changed any settings on done a update?
The usual culprit is probably an app that uses notifications and clashes with the Ambient Display.
Try turning off your Ambient Display from the Display settings and see if it still does the same. If not, then you need to find the app that causes the Ambient Display to think it has received a notification when in fact, it has not.
I found that LightFlow is causing behaviour like the one you've seen. I turned off Ambient Display because I like LightFlow more.

Greenified device waking up when there is a shake or movement, kept idle. Ambient screen flashing up every now and then when I am not even picking it up.
Anyway to fix it ? On top of that previously I didnt have ambient screen turned on. Anyway to disable ambient display ?

Ambient display or Moto display? By the way, it is normal for the phone to wake up occasionally or else you won't get any notification or your alarm won't trigger.
Does anyone know if it's possible to increase the amount of time the screen comes on for when a notification arrives? I find it to be too quick and by the time I pick up my phone to look at the notification, the screen turns off.
As far as I can tell, the only option is on or off. No customization. I am stock Android 9.0.
Thanks.
