Widget that turns the generally audio promts OFF or ON.

Can someone develop a widget that turns the audio promts hidden in the settings off or on?
It would of course be best if this switch could be installed in the rotating "control" menu.

The audio promts can unfortunately only be set generally spanning.
That means they apply to all apps.

Example:
You have to go in to the settings every time before hiking and switch off the audio promts for the ∅pace and after the hiking you have in to go again in to the settings and switch on the audio promts, because normaly you use this audio promts for the daily running trainings.
This is annoying and could be simplified with a little widget.

Technically, this place is about ConnectIQ app ideas. What you are suggesting is not currently possible as a ConnectIQ app for two reasons:

ConnectIQ does not have access to change system-wide settings like disabling audio prompts. This is a design decision, and is *very* unlikely to change in the future.
ConnectIQ cannot be used to create an entry in the wheel menu. This is not something I recall being discussed, but it is something that we could do.

Given both factors, it seems that the appropriate place to make your suggestion is either via the ideas page, as suggested, or in one of the device forums as the change would have to be made to the device firmware to give you what you want.

It seems you've previously made this same suggestion via the ideas page. If that is the case, then I think this thread has run its course.

My goal is attention.
Unfortunately, I cannot influence what some make of it.
I can only try to focus on problems to reach developers wherever they come from.
I am pleased that you too have now become aware of this.
