Adjust Transparency of Lock Screen Notification on Samsung Galaxy

Samsung introduced tons of new features when they rolled out their version of the Android Oreo update. Some of the best improvements were done on the UI front. This update included a better lock screen which features the new clock that matches the color with the set wallpaper. Furthermore, you can now set the level of transparency of the lock screen notifications. This is particularly useful if you hate the fact that an opaque notification block ruins the beautiful wallpaper. Here’s how to adjust the transparency of lock screen notification on Samsung Galaxy devices. This works on Samsung Galaxy S10, S9, S8, S7, Note 10, 9, A series and J series running on One UI or Samsung Experience on Android 8 and 9.

You can see a preview of the lock screen on the top so that you will know exactly how it will look as you adjust the transparency. A fully transparent lock screen notification also looks good but only on certain wallpapers – preferably dark ones. A fully transparent notification would be difficult to read on a bright wallpaper. Also, make sure the toggle is turned to on Auto-reverse text color. Enabling this would make the text readable on a bright background even if the transparency is set to High.

It was a good move by Samsung to combine this feature with an adaptive clock. Your device’s lock screen didn’t look this much better before.
