What are these symbols?

Farmin — Thu, 21 Mar 2024 01:18:27 GMT

What are these two symbols that keep popping up on my phone and how can i get rid of them? They only appear when the phone is locked. They don't show up in the notification history.

It may be for the touch gestures feature to access multiple widgets. You should be able to drag it from right to left on the lock screen. Can you circle to search it?

It's actually in with the other notifications on the lock screen. I have tried the circle to search and didn't have any luck.

Try settings>advanced features> motions and gesture>lift to wake> toggle off. Let me know if it disappears.

I believe this to be an s pen related notification.

In other apps I'm familiar with, the thumbtack and document icon usually indicates that something is either pinned or attached. I searched, but was unable to find this particular icon.

It's you onscreen memo you pinned.

Tap on it with your SPEN then it'll open it and then tap on the X.

One tap of the screen displays the symbol. I took my Spen to open it by tapping on the symbol. I saved it and it went away.

Lock the phone with side button then touch the display with you finger. It should pull up the always on display screen. This is where this icon is. Now pull out s-pen and touch the pin 📌 icon. Now press the x to discard it. Should be gone.
