    Hi all
    Nokia 6 2017 updated to Pie and the time now appears at top left of the screen.
    I've had a poke about but can't find any way of removing it.
    I already have clock on screen and don't need another.It also takes up space in the notification bar
    Anyone know how to hide it please?
    Thanks in advance
    Steve F :)

    On my One Plus 6, if I go to Settings, Display and scroll down to Status Bar I can remove the clock. I don't know if the settings on the Nokia are the same.

    Sadly no, that option doesn't appear on the Nokia 6 :(

    Get yourself Nova launcher, then follow the below steps:

    Press and hold onto the home screen and choose “Widgets.”
    Scroll and search for Nova Launcher widget.
    Select the widgets.
    Select widget called “Activities”.
    Scroll and find the System UI option.
    Select this option and choose “System UI demo mode” at the bottom.
    An app activity will be created on the Home Screen.
    Launch it and select “Status bar”.

    You can then select which icons you want in the status bar including the time :)

    No probs. They moved the clock over to the left because of all the phones coming out with notches. Bit of a nuisance but at least that's the great thing in Android in that there is usually** an option to change it !



    ** Disclaimer - don't blame me, if your search for an option is unsuccessful :pac:

    I've got a Nokia 8 and they did the same,they also removed the frequently used apps row visible at the top of the app menu.
