The reason why they moved the lock screen clock off-center is to show more content (notifications) in a glance instead of having to scroll through them. As an added bonus, to the users listening to music in landscape mode get a full view of the music controls with its album art, and the notifications relocated at the left side under the clock, which makes viewing notifications and controlling music unobstructed.


I believe there is no fix to bring the clock back to the center, unfortunately. Personally, I find the change much pleasing because I get to see what's playing more clearly without my notifications making the album art disappear.


See the screenshot to have an idea what it looks like:User uploaded file
