Mk3s touch screen activated in shower/water

Does anyone have issues with the touchscreen getting triggered in the shower or when wet, cycling through screens and sometimes making selections bu itself?

Yes, but that is expected somehow. I have a short cut to quickly toggle touch screen. In rain and in the shower you should turn it off. For outdoor activities there is an option to have touch only on maps screens.

How do you set up the shortcut to turn off the screen?

Water will trigger touch, it's not an issue with this device, it's just how capacitive touch displays work. Same would happen on your phone, for example.

In system settings > hot keys.

It is already set.
You have to press START and DOWN buttons together.

For me better works automatic watch lock.

Yes, I have the same issue and it only started recently. There must have been an update that caused this. I had no issues with the Mk2i and no issue for a year on the Mk3i. This just started in the last few months.
