You mean the clock?
Try aligning the clock on your lock screen to the exact center of the display. I think it determines your AOD clock position.

That will work. But even after aligning the clock, it will still shift from time to time to prevent "screen burn-in."

I believe it will automatically shift to three different positions after a fixed period, which is great because it helps the screen as u found..

Thank you for your feedback regarding the Always On Display (AOD) alignment issue on your Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Please note that with One UI 8, the AOD clock and icons are designed to slightly shift positions periodically to help prevent screen burn-in. This is a normal behavior and may cause the clock or icons to appear misaligned at times, even after manually centering them on the lock screen.

If the display behavior is excessive or seems abnormal, you can try the following:

  1. Check AOD settings
    Settings > Lock screen > Always On Display
  2. Ensure that the “Clock style” and “Position” settings are configured as preferred.
  3. Restart the device
  4. Press and hold the power button, select Restart, then observe the AOD behavior.
  5. Update software
    Settings > Software update > Download and install
  6. Updates may include improvements for AOD performance and stability.
