Ambient Mode is not available - Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers

On my new Pixel 4 XL "Ambient Mode" during charging is not available. It is just not available in Google Assistant (see attachment).
My previous phone was a OnePlus 3 and after some troubles with the Google Assistant which crashed every time on starting Ambient Mode while charging, I opted out for this on several times so it wouldn't bother me any more when I plugged my OP3 in.
Could this have anything to do with it? Maybe Google "remembered" my actions on ambient mode?
Thnx,
Rene

Moto Display At Night

Has anyone else wanted to turn off Moto Display at night? It doesn't wake me up but the option would be nice.
Googling the issue, it seems that the Moto X has or used to have the option to set times where the display stays off. However, those options were for Active Display, not Moto Display. It's slightly annoying that they took this option away.
I have the 2013 Moto X and yes the Active Display options in settings has the ability to set a time frame where it turns Active Display off. This is on KitKat 4.4.4. If the Droid Turbo doesn't have that ability, I'm sure it will be added soon. They advertise using Moto Actions to wave off alarms, but who will use it as an alarm clock if you can't shut off a pulsing light. Luckily they should be able to update just the app to provide that ability. I would definitely leave feedback on their app page for Moto Display in Google Play Store.
Maybe not super useful, but if you put the Moto X face down, I believe it disables active display. In the case of the Turbo, putting it face down may do the same, or will at least hide the light...

You can go to the Moto app and then to Assist. That has an option for a sleep schedule where you can mute the phone during your sleep times as well as turn off the display. That will turn off Moto Display at night.

Active Display on Moto G5+

Hi, coming from nexus device with rgb led and lightflow app
Moto g5+ is one of the candidate for upgrade, i'm interested in how active display on g5+ works.
Does the active display turns on the screen when you get notification, and than turns off the screen and that's it? or you can set to pulse from time to time, so it's always visible?
tnx
bump, can anyone please confirm? i have to buy new device soon and it's would be an important feature
Out of the box, it shows up on notifications, but you can set a clock as a screensaver to get the "always on" feel. 3rd party Roms also bring ambient display support. Additionally, there are a bunch of apps you can get off the play store which do the same type of thing. The possibilities are endless

TicWatch Pro Question

Yesterday, while in Ambient Mode, a heart-rate monitor displayed on the screen above the time with my current heart-rate. I have not been able to duplicate it. Anyone have any ideas on how/why it showed up? I didn't even know Ambient Mode had that ability...
Occur in essential mode "only" when you press Up button (or down ?) or in exercice mode.
Thank you. I didn't think it was in Essential Mode... Though it's weird it won't show when in regular Ambient mode...

I have always on display enabled but it does not seem to be the assistant ambient mode.

Same here, I don't have it. Maybe now that's official, the next update of google app will enable this

Ambient Mode on Open Beta 4

All my friends who own OnePlus Devices got already the Ambient mode.
Does my device's haven't got Ambient Mode on Google is because i have Open Beta 4?

Have you checked your Google Assistant settings to .ake sure it's turned on? The reason I ask is because I never got a notification when it showed up, I just happened to check my settings one day and it was there, but it's turned off by default
