Deleting "All Apps" fixed the issue! By the way for future readers, "All Apps" is a non-essential add-on that let's you scroll vertically through your app screen. It is not critical to the system at all.

Hey ! Thanks for visiting the Community! Removing the Glance feature is a straightforward process, but it varies slightly depending on your device model or operating system. Try these steps to disable it.

 

Step 1: Open Settings
The first step in removing Glance from your lock screen is to access the Settings menu on your Samsung device. You can do this by:

Unlocking your phone.
Tapping the Settings icon from the app drawer or the notification panel.


Step 2: Navigate to Lock Screen Settings
Once you are in Settings, you will need to navigate to the Lock Screen options. Follow these steps:

Scroll down and select Lock Screen.
Look for options related to notifications or display settings.


Step 3: Locate the Glance Feature
Under Lock Screen settings, you might need to specifically search for options that mention Glance, notifications, or screen display preference.

Finding Glance
The Glance option may also be under Notifications on Lock Screen or App Notifications. Tap on any section that sounds relevant until you locate the Glance settings.

 

Step 4: Disable Glance Notifications
Once youโ€™ve found the Glance feature, you can turn off notifications. Hereโ€™s how:

Select the Glance option.
Toggle the switch to Off or deselect any relevant options that pertain to Glance.


Step 5: Confirm Your Changes
After youโ€™ve disabled Glance, itโ€™s crucial to confirm the changes. Some devices may require you to save settings explicitly.

Look for a save or apply button and tap on it.
Exit the Settings menu.


Refreshing Your Lock Screen
To confirm that Glance has been removed, lock your phone and observe the lock screen. It should now display without the Glance information.

 

Please let me know if this helps.

Hi, I have set wallpaper services to none but the lock screen glance is still there. I also notice that the All Apps screen is always open. S24Ultra.

I also heard on another forum that removing All Apps will resolve this. Is that safe? I can't find any answer online but it appears All Apps is constantly running so I'm thinking that's what is supporting Glance since I can't find Glance anywhere on my phone.

Hello. I tried all of this and there is no settings with Glance. Very puzzling to me. What else do you need from me to get this fixed?

I have this problem also. My Galaxy S24 Ultra has no Glance app, no Lock Screen Stories, no Dynamic Lock Screen, no Wallpaper Services toggle, no โ€œSwipe left for info pageโ€, no Samsung Free / Discover, no Samsung Content & Services, no AOD Service, no ST Platform, no Bixby Services, no Disable buttons, no Clear Cache buttons. It may be Verizonโ€™s Glanceโ€‘integrated SystemUI build. How do I deal with this?

I've read a few places that the application "All Apps" can be unistalled to resolve this but I'm too afraid it may mess things up. Haven't confirmed if this is safe to do to resolve this issue.
