Add Do Not Disturb as a Hotkey to fenix 5 series

Requesting the addition of the "Do Not Disturb" control as a hotkey.

Do Not Disturb is something that I often manually turn on and off depending on my environment/activity. Currently, you have to enter the Controls menu and cycle through until you get to Do Not Disturb. It would be much more convenient as a hotkey option and it seems like it would be a popular hotkey.

Is there a reason that it was not set up as a hotkey option?

    I agree. I would suggest just pressing and holding the Back button, which doesn't seem to do anything while in normal 'watchface' view. (I have a Forerunner 245).

    And it would be good if you could set a default duration for the quiet period, say one hour.

    The way you need to do it currently is just a bit too fiddly, and it often makes you appear rude to the people you're with at the time because you have to look down and press buttons on your watch.

    I used to have a Pebble and the DND button was my favourite hokey.

    Perhaps I'll write an IQ app for it...

    Another vote here for this. I'm a police officer, in a night time tactical situation I need to get into DND mode ASAP.. navigating through controls and lighting up my display puts me at risk. I'm sure my military comrades will also concur with this. Fenix series watches are popular among police and military.. this would be a solid addition to keeping us safe.
