Always On Display Setting

I have my S21 set for the always on display (AOD) at all times. When I double click on the AOD I then get a screen which shows the time date and any notifications. Is there a way to go directly from the AOD screen to my home screen?
you mean...bypass the lockscreen? not very secure if so.

Yes, I know it is not very secure but I really do not have any secret or private info on the phone which is not already password protected. I actually figured out how to bypass the screen by going into Security and saying none (it was previously saying swipe).
