The SET Button !


I have found something I did not know about the SET button:

When an activity is launched, you can push once on the SET button and you are back to the watch face.

Another push on the SET button and you are back on the activity screen you have just left !

Another push on the SET button and you are back on the watch face again !!

Now you can browse your widgets and one push on SET ----> you are back on the activity screen !!
Another push on SET and..... -----> you are back to the watchface...

Handy isn't it ?

:-)

    That's why the SET button also has the label BACK next to it [IMG2=JSON]{"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","src":"https:\/\/forums.watchuseek.com\/images\/smilies\/icon_good.gif"}[/IMG2]


    Deja vu all over again ...

    I use it every time like that during an activity. Versatile.. when at the watch face, you can then scroll up or down through your everyday screens.

    Yes, handy!!!

    gaijin Not only is it on the watch, but it's the very first thing covered in the owner's manual under "introduction". I think the OP was just trying to be funny. They had to be, right? :rolleyes:
  • As I have already answered to Gaijin on the other forum... Nope I'm serious. :-D
    And excuse my French but I use my Instinct daily and the back button on the long press was a reason why I have bought it. (Because many reviewers were stuck on the stopwatch where the BACK button served as Split function...)

    The BACK button served as "BACK and FORTH" button when an activity is ON.
    When there is no activity it is a only a "back" function: a dead end to the watchface.

    When any activity is ON => it is then a SWITCH button (more than a back button). See ?

    The Introduction manual says: "Select to return to the previous screen. Hold to view the clock menu."

    No activity triggered.
    Dead end behavior: hit BACK many times and you will be stuck on the watch face.

    Activity triggered:
    SWITCH behavior between the watchface and the last screen of the activity.
    It is really handy going back and forth between the various screens of an activity and the watchface and widgets.

    So the "Back Button" does not have the same behavior when an activity is ON. :-)

    Before that epiphany, during an activity, I was using the BACK button to go back to the watchface (and the widget I needed) and... to go back to the activity screen I was first going back to the watchface and then hit the GPS key.

    Now I only use that BACK key (SWITCH key) during an activity.
    And you know what?.... I really like that feature !! :-D
