What gestures are you trying to use? I'm only aware of the backlight feature (does the watch do more than that?), so you may want to check your backlight settings to ensure it's turned on for "out of activity" mode, you're not within your sleep window, and DND isn't on...

Hi thanks - regardless of the settings the GESTURE function (turning on the backlight) does not work - sleep window is 2359 - to bed / wake 0600 all other settings are ON - DND is OFF - I note that I am not the only person that has had this problem - I have upgraded from the Fenix 3 - as far as I can tell all other features are working it is 1020hrs and not working thanks mike

The second hand in some stock watch faces is activated by gesture, and also the display timeout in some of the ultra conservative Power Manager settings.
