Can Samsung users change the screen-wake behavior for notifications?

Samsung notification wake behavior is configurable to an extent, but whether the screen lights up depends on lock-screen, Always On Display, edge-lighting, and per-app settings.

What to do

  1. Open Settings > Notifications and Lock screen.
  2. Review pop-up style, AOD, and the app's alert settings.
  3. Send a test notification with the screen off.
